University comparison

I got offer from leeds , southampton and bristol for electric and electronic eng . But lm not sure which one is the best choice for a student
Bristol - centre of all things Engineering - and a great city to live in : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=khM7tjui86Q
İ heard that most of the students want to go to leeds since the city is more lively and fun . What do you think ?

I haven't been to all three of these Unis so how on earth can I compare them.
'Fun' is totally subjective. What may be fun for you you wont be for anyone else.

I suggest that you look at the COURSE at each Uni - that is what you will be studying for the next three years not the 'fun' of the Uni.

All are very strong Leeds & Southampton both have very strong engineering reputation (not sure about EEE tho).

Bristol probably has the best reputation generally speaking. Job wise I doubt it will make a difference where you pick, unless one specialises in a particular industry or research area your interested in!

All are great student cities: i've been out in Southampton & Bristol and these are both very good student areas. Leeds probably has the best 'student life' reputation, but Uni is more what you make it, not where you go.
