Student review [#13217]
for International Social and Public Policy
at London School of Economics and Political Science - LSE
London, The United Kingdom
Since coming to LSE three months ago, I have had an overall great experience.
Living in a uni hall has been a good way to meet new people and find a home in a city as vibrant and busy as London. The first term at LSE has been very intellectually demanding as the workload is relatively large compared to other universities – however, the professors have been a huge help. Not only do they encourage you to engage with the topic in the classroom but also invite you to their office hours to talk about your academics, life in general and your favourite movie.
While I consider the teaching good, I would say that it is not what makes LSE outstanding and world-leading: It is the people you meet and have the most interesting and stimulating discussions and deep talks with! Societies give you an opportunity to meet more like-minded people from other programmes and to socialise and relax after a busy day.
If you are interested in the social sciences, openminded and want to be in an international and challenging environment, then you should definitely consider applying to LSE.
Good luck!
