University of Leeds – Take 2

We ruddy love Leeds we do! Visit number 5 to the city since we launched RateMyPlacement. This time we were in Leeds to see the work experience co-ordinator in the careers service, and what a quality careers service it is. Big leather couches, the Olympics on the flat screen TVs; we could have probably stayed there all day!
While we in Leeds we also managed to have a couple of drinks in Headingley, which was pretty busy, even out of season. Unfortunately our timing could have been better, we were a day early to see England vs SA in the one dayer. Next time we will check the fixtures before we book our visit.
The University of Leeds ratings:
- Weather = 5 / 10 – That fine rain, the sort that soaks you through…
- Grounds = 8 / 10 – Leeds is great!
- Beer = 6 / 10 – Pretty pricy for a student focused area and on a Tuesday night during the summer! Newcastle prices were far for forgiving!
- Bird watching = 8 / 10 – I think all the students have begun to flock back
- The “pot-noodle test” = 10 / 10 – The price hasn’t changed, its still 2 for £1.20.
- The Leeds Uni Grand Total = 39 / 50
