I've applied to General Engineering at Sheffield and Physics at Manchester. Currently I'm trying to decide between the two choices I have.
Looking at Manchester, I see that physics has a more varied program due to its many optional modules, and it is very well-regarded internationally.
Sheffield is also good for engineering and a general engineering degree means I specify my subject in 3rd year which would give me more time to think about what I would want to do with my life, however, I don't think it is as internationally.
I think Sheffield offers a more direct path to a job that will likely pay better, but I have also been reading that physics degrees are very sought-after and often lead to software engineering-type jobs.
I personally don't have a clue what I want my life to lead to at the minute so I am equally open to both choices, which is making it incredibly hard to decide. I would prefer to work a job in a different country (UK) when I'm older, hence why I mention the global view of the universities.
Any advice on the matter would be greatly appreciated
