1. There are locals and there are foreigners
2. This im not sure, but my lecturer once told me that for engineering, if MEng is recognised, then MsC is too
3. Yes, common one is engineering maths in year 1, are the same..but that also depends on the class size, if the students for, lets say chem eng is too big, then dont need to share, but if both classes of students can fit into one, then yeah they can share...most of the time chem eng no need to share, becoz there are always a lot of intakes taking chem eng
4. Generally speaking, yes
5. We have basketball courts, tennis courts, squash courts, badminton courts, swimming pool, a football field, a gym, what else...... the gym itself, i went there in year 1, didnt go back since coz it was quite a mess...but i dont know now
6. Well in year 1 u have fluid mechanics, some organic chemistry, and also thermodynamics...in year 2 there's thermodynamics again...not sure bout year 3, but in year 4 there's higher level of fluid mechanics...i would say it's pretty even, maybe more onto chemistry? but then again chemical engineering is much more than just a chemistry/physics course
7. For year 1 students, it's advisable to stay on campus..but if u have a car, then i personally prefer to stay off, the rent is much cheaper..
8. Decent is probably the right word, nothing more... some prices are acceptable, and some are not.. the stall at the back of the cafeteria, would charge higher like rm8-10 for a plate
9. this im not sure
10. this im not sure
11. 70 and above
12. yes..the engineering course here is very good, perhaps one of the best in the country...but i personally regretted, coz i could have gone to curtin which is just driving distance away from my home but i chose to fly all across to here

13. u will have quite a lot of exposure to lab work every year...the lab itself is quite well equipped...
14. the people as in the students? like usual there will be those hardworking ones and those who slack(like meĀ

I try to answer as best I could.
Well thanks for taking the time to answer my questions.
Do alot of people graduate with 1st class honor?
Also, how many people are there in a class?
Is Curtin better?
So how much is the rent to stay off campus? Did you do your own laundry and stuffs?
Basically how much is your expenses a month?
Which is the place student usually stay? What facilities does it come with?
Oh and for the application, will there be an interview? Does everyone that applies get Nottingham?
And to be honest, I haven't made up my mind to which engineering course to study. Mechanical or Chemical.
My A Level grades are as followed
Mathematics A*
Further Maths A*
Physics A*
Chemistry B
Reason I'm considering chemical engineering is because I'm good at physical chemistry and organic chemistry but terrible at inorganic chem. Also because there's high demand for chemical engineers.
What are the starting salary like for Nottingham freshgrads?
