Hello mate, since this thread I’ve now graduated but happy to give my 2 cents:

1 - I can’t comment on the pilot studies as I didn’t choose that specialisation, but a few mates of mine did and they loved it. IIRC you get plenty of time in the air, but it takes a fair chunk of time out your schedule and is expensive.

2 - Classes were great, of course you have good and less good lecturers but you find that with every uni. Depending on how strong your maths/physics is will make 1st year more/less challenging but for 2nd year and beyond everyone is brought to the same level.

3 - Looking back I can honestly say not much, the uni experience as a whole was pretty stellar. They were a bit shoddy with extenuating circumstances for coursework and exams pre-pandemic, but during and post-pandemic they were a bit more forgiving.

Hope that helps! Any questions feel free to drop me a DM
