Hi there,

The number of students in a lecture at Reading can really depend on the year and also specific modules. Generally, you will find that big modules/lectures have between 50-100 students. This is based of my experience, however more specialised modules/course specific modules may just have a classroom size of 25-30 people or less 🙂

When it comes to tutorials and practical sessions, groups are much smaller which gives you the chance for more 1-1 interaction with lecturers and tutors. The Uni of Reading lecturers give many opportunities for you to drop into their office if you need extra help or guidance which is so helpful.

I hope this helps! Feel free to reach out if you have any more questions.

All the best,
Millie 🙂
