    Sorry, haven't been on in a day or two. Yeah, it's pretty good. It's not that much more difficult to be honest. Can get a little boring sometimes, although that might be my teacher

    Little harsh, the content of the exams hasn't gotten easier, teaching has become more centred around passing exams and syllabuses are more regimented (so again, completely focussed on getting grades). Plus, modular systems mean it is easier to simply teach in a parrot fashion so as to remember enough to pass the exam, before forgetting it and beginning the next module.

    The 'exams are too easy' rant is the same old 'in my day' rant that every generation does towards the next!

    Also, if anyone HASN'T applied to uni yet, I would recommend Queen's University Belfast...Yes I'm biased as I'm over here, but it's a Russell Group Uni, but due to it's position in Northern Ireland, I think it'll be one of the last to raise it's fees to the complete maximum (and have agreed in principal to only a partial raise in the coming years).
