Lil Posted December 14, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2007 but top 5 where?? Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Afterglow Posted December 14, 2007 Report Share Posted December 14, 2007 I have never heard anything negative about UCL and consider it myself as one of the top universities in UK. It's huge as well. The Times ranking has it on nr 6 in general. However, you can also compare it with the subjects it teaches (for example for medicine it is at rank 7 and for law it is actually rank 2 with only cambridge being in the first rank) and the Guardian has UCL at nr 5. However, leauge tables cannot always be trusted but it does give some information. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
~Lc~ Posted December 14, 2007 Report Share Posted December 14, 2007 in the UK Lil it's also ranked top 50 in the world if I'm not wrong... Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest forsakendarkness Posted December 15, 2007 Report Share Posted December 15, 2007 In the new Times rankings UCL is number 9 in the world. Its worldclass considering they have far less funding than Ivy league universities in the US and then placed above them in the rankings.

imdillionen Posted March 3, 2008 Report Share Posted March 3, 2008 I hear somewhere that they have a bad attitude towards the IB graduates, don't like to take them etc. Don't know tho, if that was from a reliable source (can't remember where I heard it).

Ruan Chun Xian Posted March 3, 2008 Report Share Posted March 3, 2008 I hear somewhere that they have a bad attitude towards the IB graduates, don't like to take them etc. Don't know tho, if that was from a reliable source (can't remember where I heard it).Where did you hear that?I know someone (who Lc knows as well) who got an offer there but didn't make her offer, but she called them and asked them to consider accepting her anyway and she got accepted in the end even though she didn't make the grades she needed in her HLs. So if they really have bad attitude towards IB, this doesn't show it. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
~Lc~ Posted March 3, 2008 Report Share Posted March 3, 2008 ya our friend missed her offer for maths! do you understand what that means? Maths is a high in demand course, but they still accepted her, even though she told me later that her coursemates now are all 40+ students which pisses her off aparently but that's irrelevant. It really depends... for most courses they don't een require more than a 36... Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
deissi Posted March 3, 2008 Report Share Posted March 3, 2008 Wow, UCL has the ability to study Swedish as a minor! I only wish they'd offer International Relations as a major - I'd love to be able to keep up my Swedish skills whilst in university. They also have Finnish but I doubt whether anyone studies it Btw, tervetuloa uudelle suomalaiselle (turkulaiselle/vaasalaiselle?) jäsenelle!

ysl89 Posted March 7, 2008 Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 Does UCL show any preference towards an A-levels student when compared to an IB student? Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graeme Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 I applied to UCL for psychology, and they rejected me . To be honest, if you like the idea of living in London, then I'm sure it's great, but if you are like me and you like open space and nice surroundings, it's absolutely terrible.
