thats quite funny oscar- i trained up the road but now am working in glasgow was never on placement here either!
I suppose if your changing courses you have probably given it a good deal of thought already. I would suggest that you go and do a bit of shaddowing, visit a department and see exactly whats involved.

I'm a final year student in Manchester - it has a great reputation, good facilities (we are moving soon to a purpose built facility in leafy Didsbury) and so on. If you are a student who just does the work and so on it's great but they aren't too supportive of additional work you do. I chair the Students' Executive Committee for the CSP and also sit on CSP Council. I basically have to work my ass of as I get zero support from the uni (other unis do give plenty of support like Nottingham).

Some bits about Manchester though - one of the biggest schools (approx 140 / year); the first physio school in the country (1911); and the first to offer graduate physiotherapy. It has extensive links around the North West and usually yields well rounded and considerate graduates.

Visit the crappy website (MMU - Manchester Metropolitan University) for more info

Good luck!
