The interaction was fulfilling. The instructors were kind, flexible, and enjoyable. The students were excellent, and the neighbourhood was kind and welcoming. I think the course material was outstanding overall, despite my partial dissatisfaction.

I’m in my 4th head now out of 5 and having a good time.
——————————
Started my placement years last year and it has been interesting and different from learning just from lectures as it’s more practical. It is challenging in some ways as Cardiff sends you all over and there isn’t always transport to take you, so is hard if you don’t have a car. But the campus is nice, there’s good facilities. Staff are there to help when needed and offer more support. I like being close to Cardiff bay and there’s enough to do in the city. Amenities are close by. Fairly diverse course and have met lots of lovely people.
The student accommodation I lived in first year was ok, but was quite a rowdy building so would say check the building you’ve been allocated as some are more party centred than others .

Medical school is very organised with plenty of contacts and support. Good facilities. Good lecturers and societies associated with the course. Course makes it very difficult for students to enjoy in Cardiff. Placements far away.

Very early and extensive clinical experience, very much enjoyed.
Lack of teaching/ instruction/ direction for theory aspects left us confused at times. Timetable was quite variable – it is good to have some variety, but sometimes I felt like it changed too much.

Great university, such a family atmosphere. In a city that feels like a town with loads of green space. Great opportunities – so many sports, societies and the healthcare sciences are amazing quality I am proud to be a medical student there.

As an international student, I had some difficulties in the courses, the modules are not fully understandable even when am asking the tutors to explain, some of them just make it more complicated.
Some of the tutors not considering that there are non native speakers during the lectures and do take really fast.
The schedule timings are tiring! As a suggestion, it is better to divide the lectures to more days.
One of the modules the marking of the assignment was not fair as each marker have a different point of view.
The course wasn’t as expected

These are the things that made me struggle

On another hand there are some tutors who are helpful and kind.

The facilities are good and the accommodations are fine
It is a good environment for students
And I will recommend the university to a friend but I will advise them and explains what I get lost in.
