Glasgow Uni vs Leeds Uni for Zoology

I've received offers for both Glasgow and Leeds for Zoology but I can't decide which one I should choose. Glasgow has offered BBB and Leeds has offered AAB or BBB if I complete A2L. I've been to both for open days and I loved both of them so just curious to see if anyone has any advice or experience?

Do either include a work=placement or study abroad? This would add enormously to your graduate CV.

Btw, Glasgow gets the Commonwealth Games in 2026 - that will mean all sorts of investment/new facilities in the city, and interesting volunteering/work for the event itself.

Glasgow offer both separately so I'd have to choose one or the other and I'm currently leaning towards a year abroad, but Leeds offer both and also a hybrid year where you can do 6 months of work placement and 6 months abroad, which seems ideal.
