1. What are the ratio of local to foreigner students ?
I would put it at 80-20 with 80 as local.
2. How are the lesson conducted? A huge lecture and then smaller tutorial class? Or more like how we are all used to in secondary school? If so, how big are the classes/tutorials?
Lectures are quite big during foundation and first year courses, but as more elective options open they get to a nice size. Tutorial classes are essentially the same as lectures.
3. Are the lecturers keen to stay back with you and help you with your problems/questions?
Lecturers for the most part are more than happy to answer to problems during lecture breaks. You can also make an appointment with a lecturer for further questions.
4. Why did you guys chose Nottingham ?
Decent University I would say. Also the option to switch over to Nott UK was nice.
5. This is to the students doing Civil Engineering, what exactly do you guys learn? Is it more towards maths or physics? Maybe with more specific details? Because I'm not sure if this is the right course for me yet.

Not too sure about this one.
Thank you so much NFG89! Very much appreciated.
I went over to Semenyih the other day to check everything out. The room they got on campus is very very small, and I went to the biggest one they got. The cafeteria looks very run down though, at least the indoor one.
I did not manage to check out the library, is it a comfortable place to study? Since the rooms are so tiny, I don't think I'll spend much time there to read.
