Dentistry at Glasgow or QMUL

Which university would be better to go to? The disadvantages for glasgow are the distance and there being little diversity. However qmul has a worse student satisfaction and students seem to like the teaching less. So I'm confused. Is it worth packing up my whole life and going to Scotland? 🙂 any advice would be appreciated!!

It’s quite a few years of your life so you want it to be somewhere you will be happiest. Think about the impact on your daily living in each of those places. Have you been to offer holder days? Visit and talk to current students about their experiences and your personal concerns. Glasgow may be less ethnically diverse than London (most other places in the UK are) but it’s probably similarly diverse in socioeconomic ways. I’ve never been to Glasgow but I live in a city that’s not very ethnically diverse, and although I’m sure there are individuals who are prejudiced, the overwhelming culture is one of inclusivity and friendliness. Sorry I can’t be of more help. Good luck :smile:
