Just a quick question. Just how much PBL does Southampton do? I'm applying for uni for 2008 entry and am trying to decide on where to go. I'm not keen on PBL, so it's difficult to find places that don't do that much.
I think their course is a mix of teaching methods.
So its not an extreme PBL course like Peninsula.
It says intergrated systems based I think in the prospectus.
But I havent applied yet so Im not 100% sure.
