In my opinion:
Everybody loved it, you will too!
Important factors in my choice
(1) Unimportant – (4) Very important
Personal recommendation
It is a good, international university. Nevertheless, it is up to the individual to make the best out of it both academically and socially. For example, I strongly believe that the role of the university is not as important as the student's performance. I would prefer a Kent graduate with a first class degree rather than a LSE graduate with a third class degree. Simply because the firs one is disciplined and hard working and could do their best in any institution
