Manchester University was my clearing choice long with a university of east Anglia. Originally applied for dentistry at the University of Newcastle, but didn't manage the grades. But Manchester is a bigger city with more to do.
Course Curriculum
Very challenging. Sometimes too much work for a first-year to catch up on. However, the course is very interesting as you're-learning about the functions of the human body and how it interacts with drugs
Placement
They're good. Had 2 placements: one in MRI hospital and in a local pharmacy. They're interesting as you're able to look at all the drugs available and able to interact with patients with different medical conditions.
Fees
Pay $9450 per year. There are no other charges except a pharmacy society which costs an extra $40 for the whole course
Examination Structure
4 modules but examined on 3 modules each with 25 questions. So 75 marks with 40% pass mark on each module. They're multiple choice questions with 5 choices and correct answer only. We have 2 calculation exams each with 20 questions, 1 hour with 80% pass mark.
Faculty
It's well established, but the pharmacy faculty could be better equipped. More money could be put into the facility to make the course more enjoyable as it looks quite dull
