    The Culture

  • 12. Was there a good social scene amongst any fellow placement students/colleagues?

    • Loads of students and very friendly but it's hard when people are spread geographically and are very busy in their roles. Not an abundance of social options in Bracknell so we tended to have to go into Reading for nights out! But the gym is very social and there are some great sports groups for all levels of ability.

    4/5
  • 13. What was the cost of living and socialising in the area you worked in?

    • Bracknell seemed very cheap for those of my friends who lived there, or Reading is a bit more expensive but closer to the action.

    4/5
  • 14. What was the Nightlife like in the area you worked?

    • Have to go to Reading or into London - but the option is there.

    4/5
  • 15. Were there many opportunities to get involved in activities outside of work?
