Rankings dont really matter for pharmacy since all Pharmacy schools are credited by the GPhC. But on the QS rankings for pharmacy and pharmacology Swansea is higher.
Whats ranked highest brighton or reading for pharmacy? Or which one is better overall?
Good afteroon,
When choosing a university, it depends on what you want from your university experience. Every student wants something slightly different, such as lecture style or exam vs no exams. I always recommend that you decide what you want from your university and write a list, too. You can compare the two universities to your own criteria; this means the university will be the best fit for you.
At the university of reading, there is an ambassador scheme via unibuddy, where prospective students can message current uni of reading students. There is an MPharm 2nd-year student who I recommend you message. Her name is Athena, and you can find her account here. She will be able to give you an inside perspective on the pharmacy degree and answer any questions you may have about the course.
I hope this helps answer your questions, and if you have any more questions please let us know.
