The countdown to finalising choices on UCAS has started and DS casually mentioned over dinner that he’s still not sure! He likes them all (but not bowled over by any one of them).

Anyone with DCs studying History at any of these Unis with feedback?

Which combo would you choose??

The 6-7 hours of seminars was across the year! I was quite shocked by this as I when I was at university it was 1 hour of lectures and 1 hour of seminars per week per unit.

It would be average around 6 hours contact - lectures and seminars - time for Y1 History. It gets more complicated in Y2 as you have units that only run for 1 term.

Oh wow! That is low. So 2 hours per term? Blimey.
