I wish I had known...
I would have saved more money to travel. Travelling is extremely easy and inexpensive. Also I wish I had known that everything else here is extremely expensive.

I wish I had known...
That it does not rain as much as people say it does in London...the weather was great! Also I wish I had known to bring my laptop. It would have been more convenient. But there are internet cafes everywhere so getting online was never a problem. It was also very cheap to get online.

Personal recommendation
Birkbeck was great because it was located in Bloomsbury in London, where alot of other universities were located so there were a ton of students in the area. The classes were great and we got to tour London to the fullest. I wish I could have taken even more classes or stayed longer. They were very interesting and tied into the study abroad experience.

Travel as much as possible. You are get really cheap flights out of London at Easyjet. I traveled alot and did not spend too much money in the process.

Why?
Our flat was located in Notting Hill and was in the most amazing location. It was really close to the Notting Hill Gate tube station and was close to many restaurants and pubs. Not only that, but the street our flat was located on was gorgeous. I was in awe living there. It was so surreal. The inside of the flat was large and there was alot of living space. I shared a room with two other girls and about 35 guys and girls lived in the flat. It was a wonderful experience and I would not choose to do the same thing again.

The flat was gorgeous and in a great location, Notting Hill, in central London. We had the Notting Hill Gate tube station very close and alot of restaurants and pubs. The nightlife was great as well. The inside of the flat was great too and there was alot of room. I had a very spacious room and there was tons of storage places. It was awesome :)

Overall
The introductory talk about the course was very forming and helped set the tone for what the course would entail of.
I think the library offers one of the greatest aspects of the university with its high-level facilities, variety of information and quiet study rooms so that you can revise for exams.

Without a doubt, the UK was my first choice when it came to choosing a place to further my education. Once I decided I wanted to do Law, it was easy to find a good university as most in the UK have excellent law faculties

Personal recommendation
University of London is too big to cover under a general recommendation. I personally studied at the Institute of Education /Uni. of London and it was certainly excellent with regard to academic quality and social life.

Make a good plan to enjoy London and at the same time get most of your academic engagement. Do not panic! Make sure that what you are doing is compatible with your plan.
