I’ve got an offer to study Immunology at Glasgow and another offer for Biomed at Edinburgh, pretty certain I’ll go to UWS though as I prefer the course content to the others. How about you?

Ah ok. I was going to Edinburgh biomedical science course is not really the best tbh. And there is better career opportunities in UWS because accredited by IBMS (one of the few accredited courses in Scotland) I don’t know I kinda stuck between Abertay and UWS.

oh I’ve got an Abertay offer too which I’m planning on declining, I’m going for UWS over that though as I think that’s a better option for me

The only thing I am worried for with UWS is the reviews on some websites there so bad although there for other course it still has an affect. There was like one or two bad review for biomed but the rest were positive. I feel like the reason why UWS is getting bad reviews is many because it’s a new uni as in renovation wise . They had had a lot of years to show off their college. So I have high hopes for the uni and plus they have great facilities and I think the biomedical course has good modules

haha don’t worry, I got what you meant. I’ve read a lot of positive reviews about biomed at UWS so that’s good, it’s still one of my first choices despite the bad reviews with other parts of the uni
