Hi! Iam thinking about studying in UK and Iam going to apply for 2010/11 entrance. I get on very well with Physics and Maths and I want to study Engineering (I`m considering Mechanical Engineering). My question is which univeristies in UK are the best with Enginnering. I`m asking because I am out of the UK (btw. sorry for mistakes but english is my second language). To be honest I read a lot about Cambridge University and I really like it but I would like to know your opinions. There is a big adventage that I`d be able to choose my specialisation at the beginning of the 3rd year so I`d have a lot of time to do my last choice. Tell me , please, about other univerities which you could recommend. Thanks in advice
