Exeter or Bath for econ and politics
HELP!!
I'm having the hardest time deciding between the two. While reputably Bath is excellent, especially for econ, I prefer the way the course is structured/optional modules at Exeter.
Both have lovely towns and a range of societies, but I prefer the campus at Exeter. In terms of accommodation, I like both, but at Bath there's the possibility of being put off campus in the city, so maybe I should consider Exeter??
Bath is in a better location, in terms of being close to Bristol for a night out, while Exeter is a littleeeee bit more isolated.
BTW a friend is going to Bath and while I know i'll make friends anywhere even without him, we've already been talking about moving in/doing stuff together at Bath.
Any advice, especially on the course/life there, would ve greatly appreciated!!

Employability bath is the place it’s a semi target, Exeter isn’t even a target.
Chances are you won’t be in the city for bath accommodation, if you are it means you won’t have to travel with all your shopping up the big hill from the city centre. There’s also the U1 bus which Can take you straight to the uni campus.
I’d go with Bath, however Exeter is also a lovely place. You can’t go wrong here

In year 12 atm and haven't visited unis yet so can't really help with this but I'm really curious as to what grades you are predicted because Bath and Exeter are at the top of my list to apply for Politics and Economics (Politics with Economics at Bath because I don't do maths A level)
