Comentario personal
Kahn's, great curry place and well priced. A.K.A. swish bar but user friendly. Mezzo, really swish bar with live bands. Concession tickets at Royal National Theatre. Greenwich Market or Spittalfields are more manageable than Portobello and just as fun. Blackfriar's Pub, albeit a suits place, is loaded with atmosphere as well as The Bank of England pub. YO! Sushi's conveyor belt action is a great novelty. Cabinet War Rooms and Westminster were worth it. Cheap and tasty high tea- the crypt under St. Paul's. Posh high tea- Harrod's.

Alojamiento
Tipo de alojamiento: University housing NOT ON CAMPUS
Organizado por: Universidad de intercambio
Si volviera, eligiría: same
¿Por qué?
While I wasn't very satisfied, there are few better alternatives in London. The facilities might have been improved if I went private, but it would have been more expensive and isolating.

Costumbres personales de gasto
London is very expensive. Prepared food/restaurants are more expensive than the U.S. but I compensated by learning how to cook! Accommodation, private or University, was comparable to U.S. University housing but not U.S. apartment living. Nightlife, including restaurants clubs or bars and transport to get home, is disgustingly more. Travel is a tricky one. I've spent more on travel here but that's because it costs so much less to fly from London to Europe than from the U.S.

Comentario personal
Financial surprise- A mobile phone was no more expensive than my landline. Buy phonecards to call the U.S. at rates of $.07. I shelled out about $16 a week for transport because most residences are not within reasonable walking distance of campus. I photocopied A LOT totalling well over $100. Then again, I didn't have to buy so many books.

Valoración global
Si lo hubiera sabido...
It's tough to get a summer job in the U.S. from abroad. While OK with me, others were frustrated with the level theory and lack of applied work here. The University is a bit apathetic to students. Students from different places don't mix that much. It's not ill meant. It just happens. Meeting Brits, much less befriending them, is less common than you would believe.

Recomendación personal
If you want lots of independence, travel opportunity and a city exploding with things to do this is it. If you want anything cheaply, a University that holds your hand, dynamic classroom experiences, and an accessable student body this is not your place.

Comentarios finales
There are loads of wwwdot websites that help provide cheap travel. Buy an AtoZ (said, 'A to Zed') map, sold at newsagents. It's a comprehensive London Street Guide. A computer isn't necessary here.

I would not consider the work here especially rigourous. Classes for first years are not taken very seriously but second and third year classes are more competitive.

Better access to teachers, please. Let course work shoulder the burden of the final grade instead of 100% weight on final exam.
