EEE at Uni Of Edinburgh

Hello everyone I'm considering applying to edinburgh for EEE next year but I'm super scared bcs of its super low student satisfaction especially engineering like wdym 47%of students were satisfied overall with their course, how is this even possible with a uni ranked so highly and such a beautiful city.

Anyone currently studying any engineering at edinburgh could u pls write how its been and why u think the score is so low, because I have seen plenty of either really good or bad reviews on this uni and on engineering and its so confusing lol

Thank you all so much

Hey I am thinking of applying for the same course next year and for my fifth choice I am deciding between UCL and Edinburgh. From what I have read though Edinburgh has good student satisfaction in everything even maths but not engineering which is a bummer since one of the main reasons I wanted to go there was due to the beautiful city and area around it, but at the same time wanting a good education. I honestly think you should just apply even if the student satisfaction is a bit lower since eitherway it will still be better than something like Exeter. I think since this is a world top 50 uni people also have higher expectations and also a lot of people who are not as academic get accepted (due to requirements for first year being like AAB or something), so naturally they would be complaining a bit more with extra workload and less support like in sixth form.
