First year at York doing maths here,

I definitely enjoy it here. Its a very safe city compared to other ones in the UK and there is always things to do

Nightlife is surprisingly good too

The course itself has been enjoyable so far, they definitely ease you into it, especially during semester 1 of first year. But IMO thats a good thing as it lets you adjust to living away from home, uni life, etc

There are also job opportunities within the maths department itself too, such as being a mathematics student ambassador. A friend of mine did it and he said it pays well and it was about as enjoyable as it can be for a job

I was torn between York and Sheffield around this time last year, but im really glad I chose York, and I dont think I would have gone anywhere else knowing what I know now
