For Cardiff the minimum living expenses (bare minimum) should be close to 500...
Average rent for private residences in cathays (student area near uni) is around 230-270 without bills
University residences im not sure...you can check the accomodation website for the info
Bills etc provided your living in private accomodation should set you back around 70 per month
Mobile phone contracts around 35 (with good phones)
foods etc 150 if you cooking and eat a lot
Transports free (with you legs tongue.gif)..its a compact city so everything's in walking distance

I've heard Manchester's accommodation are big and cheap. brows.gif
not sure true or not.
anyone live in Manchester before ? icon_rolleyes.gif

Thanks for all the most useful info. Please advise, with about Rm650k which universities/cities can I expect ? Is University of Liverpool a good u to consider ?

I am studying there and to be fair the word "good" is very board so it will vary from person to person, and it sometimes depends on the course you choose as well. It might not be as good as other well-known unis such as Warwick, UCL, Nottingham etc in general but I personally quite like it. It is also one of the red-brick universities. Also, the living cost is not as high as other big cities while the campus is just a few minute walk to the town centre so it's very convenient to go wherever you want. You can always come back to me again if u have more questions regarding the uni or even the city itself.

I never visited there before. Probably depends on your course but it is Top 100 according to the QS ranking last year. so I assume it is quite good as well. For more information you might wanna ask some students studying there though. ^^

Hi there, I need some help on writing my personal statement. I'm hoping to apply for two different field which is Mathematics and Mech.Engineering. Is it advisable to do so, or should I just focus on one field to show my enthusiasm and interest?

I do have a list of mathematics awards. Would they be of any help if I decided to focus on engineering?


P.S. by the way, is the subject Thinking Skills important? Would it make any difference in the decisions of universities admissions?

Then talk about maths, if you have more stuff to talk about.
You can touch a bit into engineering if you're applying for the engineering course.
oh btw, isn't it too late to apply already ?
you're applying through ucas yeah ? unsure.gif

No I'm applying for next year entry. smile.gif

Problem is, I only want to apply for Mathematics in University of Cambridge. Other university choices will all be Engineering.

I always cherish a hope to get into Oxbridge, and my best bet is to apply for Mathematics as this is where my true interest lies. I don't think I can survive an interview on Engineering for Cambridge. And hence this is where the problem arises. The personal statement is making me really confused now. sweat.gif

hey guys, I've been read through most of the post here to understand more about study in the UK.
I had my degree with honour in BA and I've been thinking to further my study(probably master) next year. So i would lk to ask a few questions:

1) I will be considering taking it in the UK or M'sia..which would be better and which Uni will be recommended for both country?

2) I came across with the pre-master and top-up degree thingy,could anyone here explain more about it?

3) how much is the cost difference between taking it in the UK and M'sia?

Your reply will be much appreciated.Cheers! smile.gif
