Re: studying pharmacy at Bath or Aston
Both Aston and Bath are good universities, and will have a high standard of teaching. I did my degree at Aston and we had some fantastic lecturers. In fact I was so impressed that I'm doing a postgrad diploma at Aston despite living in Kent.
IMO, where you choose to go should be based on where you think you will feel the most comfortable and enjoy yourself most. I don't know a huge amount about Bath as a city, but it has quite a middle class reputation. Birmingham is the second largest city in England and is quite diverse. Aston is really close to the city centre, which was definitely an advantage in my eyes.
One thing to bear in mind with Aston is that there will be a fair amount of construction work as they are building new student residences. It is due to finish September 2010, and will increase the number of places available on campus for final year students.
