KCL vs Bath vs Warwick for Computer Science ?

Hi all,
I’m trying to decide between King’s College London (KCL), University of Bath, and University of Warwick for Computer Science and would really appreciate your opinions / experiences. I’m finding it hard to pick my top choice. Here’s a bit about me and what I’m looking for:

Predicted grades: A* A* A in A‑Levels , Doing EPQ
GCSEs : 99888887765

What I’d love to know :

For CS at KCL vs Bath vs Warwick, which do you think has the best teaching, support, and resources?

Any regrets or things you wish you’d known before choosing one of them?

Thanks so much in advance! Any real experiences or honest comparisons would help loads.

Either Warwick or Bath. KCL has a few alumni from 50 odd years ago and is in london. Nothing else going for it, its just been in decline for the last 10 odd years, most overrated uni oat. Deserves the hate Durham gets which idrk why durham gets sm hate.

I would really recommend Warwick. The teaching here is strong and the lecturers are supportive. The course is flexible so you can choose different modules depending on what you like, and the computer science department has a very good reputation. The campus itself is nice with modern labs, a big library and plenty of study spaces. The careers service is also very active and many big tech companies come to campus for events and networking. Overall, I think Warwick gives you both great academic training and good opportunities for your future.
