[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I love it that UK people really take satisfaction ratings seriously.

This is much more of a big deal than most parents would like to admit. My son went to LSE and graduated 2 years ago. HE was miserable. He loved London, but he said it was almost like a community college (commuter school) when it comes to socials. A lot of dorms are far, no sense of community whatsoever. He thrived academically and it has been tremendous on his resume. But he discouraged his younger brother from applying.[/quote]

50% of undergrads at LSE are from overseas, if you count in grads its 70% of the total students.
Most of those are rich and not part of any kind of UK community.
All London universities suffer for lack of an actual campus and commute / expensive locations, but LSE really is the worst of the lot for that. [/quote]

I would take LSE’s campus over King’s by a mile. Housing is indeed tricky though.[/quote]
