LSE is a great place to create life-long connections and friends. There's a certain sense of community that is special to the university. The staff are hands-on and approachable. The facilities are modern and well-equipped.
I really enjoyed my time at LCB! I've found that my skills when I entered the work force were much higher than others. I think though there was a big portion missing in recipe development and composition. True- we did learn it through memorizing the recipes, but we really were missing classes on how different ingredients affect the final textures.. how you can change them... etc. That I still am not an expert in .. and I create recipes! Ouf! Also, I don't know if you still do a month of sugar work... but that really wasn't necessary and should be either cut or minimized to just 2 lessons. It's such a niche skill to know that I would have really preferred more technical skills. I loved the old location. The "rumors" I'm getting about the new location are that it's not as good, unfortunately - that i's become more of a money focused/marketing machine. I really hope that this image can be fixed as I love LCB and enjoyed my time there! Oh also - there should be more help for students to get jobs and featuring old students accomplishments - from cookbook launches to new bakeries so that current and old students can support them.

It was a dream come true, I wanted to become a CIMA member which I achieved in 2015, the thing I like their support very user friendly website, the thing I dislike is the Merger with AICPA, as it seems like for most members it is not a merger but a take over. All in all I am happy to be a member in this Esteem Management Accountancy body.

In my opinion choosing UOL for my undergrad was the best decision of my life. It not only taught be job ready skills it taught me how to approach a difficult task and win. The VLE portal was just awesome. The VLE or virtual learning environment provided me with necessary course and study material. Which was very helpful for a better understanding of Law.
