Daria, studied BSc Medical Sciences (Pharmacology & Therapeutics)
"Exeter was a perfect option: a Russell Group university that is high in rankings, located on a green campus, with beautiful beaches and Dartmoor National Park nearby. Exeter struck me with the quality of its teaching facilities: the Forum, the library, lecture theatres and seminar rooms looked modern and well maintained.
I am extremely sad that my time in Exeter has come to an end, but I am wholeheartedly looking forward to using acquired knowledge and skills in the new chapter of my life!"
