I grew up there and went to Strathclyde University in Glasgow.\n\nListen very closely to what I tell you...\n\nDo not do that!\n\nThe UK University system is extremely stringent and demanding. The classes per week will be a least 2x what you would experience in the US. \n\nIf you have a high IQ and are extremely bright, go ahead. If you are average, they will kill you. You will quit yourself, when you realize that your previous high school preparation is missing 2 to 3 years of entry level knowledge.\n\nThe UK high school levels are very high and overlap 1st year University. You will be embarrassed. Not your fault. your system has not prepared you for that.

You cannot compare the education in both the countries in any case. They have different standards and different extents to which they carry out research. USA has good research facilities and good mix of people whereas UK is more theoretical kinda stuff.(to the extent I know and people I have heard from). Rest is upto you.

UCL itself is relatively unkown.  About the only Federation university anyone here knows of is LSE, and maybe King's, but I think it's usually confused with a couple US schools with similar names.\n\nUnless you hate it, stick with it.  It's a year shorter, and if you wanted to work in the States most interviewers will be really impressed just by the name.  Also, I can't think of a single US city that will ever come close to London.  Here's a tip:  Go to the Belgo Centraal at Covent Garden for an early dinner.  They [used to] charge the time on your guest check for your meal, including a half of beer!  Got some good food for £5 35p!\n\nIf it's any consolation, I like the radiology deartment at your hospital.  Both as a patient and as part of my thesis at LSE...

as far as money, in-state is cheaper.\n\nBut if you want a quality education, it doesn't matter where the college is as long as it gives you the education you want.\n\nBut I'm a traveller by nature.  Just be comfortable with whatever you choose.

A uk degree is far better than the one offered by australian university , because of the education standards there.besides most of the univ in Uk have a better reputation on world map than australian univ.I ,myself wanted to opt for an engineering degree from AUS but then somebody told me that it is not safe for grls besides they have poor infrastructure facilities.

It's worth going to London for any reason.  For your particular interests, London is a major financial hub, a world player in technology and education, and friendly to peoples of different backgrounds and nationalities.  Learning new tech skills, in English, in an evironment that fosters learning and presents opportunities for future career applications?  It would definitely help.  As for costs, do your research on Yahoo before you go so that you can look into affordable courses, scholarship possibilities, and affordable housing.

the benifit of studying in a deem university is we have a lot of times to think about our lessons. and the benifit of studying in a central university is we have achance to see people who are learning with and we can share the idea to each other.

Hi :-) ! I suggest you have a look at the link below. According to "The Guardian League Tables", it seems to be Imperial College London... but, then again, it might be too expensive living in London. Would go to York or St Andrews :o) . Also, maybe you would like to have a look on how "The Guardian" rates universities. Good luck :-) !!!

It has it's own pros and cons like\n\nPROS\n\nYou can have better opportunity and world wide recognition if you study in UK or US.\nYou will gain a multicultural and united color of friends and environment.\nYou will practice English fluently.. if you are non-English speaker in your country.\nA different kind of education approach.\nYou will be independent and try to live and adapt into a new environment.\nYou can avail of the benefits that an international student have... if there is.\nFamily, friends will awww in amaze that you study abroad.\nAfter studying, you will not a hard time looking for job in a recognised country if you are in US or UK or the like.\nGreener pastures and less polluted environment... if you are from a polluted country or the like.\n\nCONS\nDiscrimination exists since you are only a second class citizen in the country you will study.  It exists everywhere but more prominent in countries where discrimination is...\nYou will probably miss the way you live in your native country.\nIn your first few months, you will have a hard time to adapt and will probably feel that you don't like to go to school;;; WELL IT DEPENDS.\nStudying abroad will make you feel home sick.\nYou cannot do your usual lifestyle and sometimes you need to adapt to new home, environment, friends, etc.\nFinancial stuffs.. if any...\nAnd, sometimes feel you are an outcast..\n\nSo, be friendly there if you plan to study abroad...\n\nI am not discouraging you and if you have the opportunity to study there, that is so great grab it.... this is a life-changing decision.

The big pro of a large university is that they offer a wide range of courses and have  professors who do cutting edge research.\n\nThe cons are that you can get lost in the crowd and those great professors may be more interested in publishing their research than in teaching their students.  Even if they do care about their students, they may spend more time with their graduate students than their undergraduates.\n\nThe big pro of a smaller school is that you get more attention.  You might actually get to know your professors.  \n\nThe con is that there may be fewer choices.  A small school might have a few majors that are quite good -- but they will probably also have some that are scaled down.  The professors may care more about teaching, but not be on the cutting edge of research.\n\nYou may want to go to the Princeton Review's web site.  They have a tool that will help you find schools that are right for you.
