Disagree. There is plenty of analysing in sciences too!
If you study physics and analyse, say, a problem involving angular momentum, that's not going to teach you much about everyday life. If, on the other hand, you are studying history, analysing the factors leading up to the Franco-Prussian war may well tell you a lot about human nature. As a science graduate myself I'm certainly not supporting the view that scientists necessarily have a less rounded education, just that it's possible to get a very good science degree with a much more specific and specialised focus than would be the case with a lot of arts degrees. |

Yes but it's usually very focussed.

It was definitely Susan - it was part of the VT interview that aired when she volunteered to be PM in Week 3. She started her own business at such and such an age, then built it up to so-and-so revenue, and paid off her mother's mortgage, all whilst studying at one of the best Universities in the world.

Yeah Susan is bigging up UCL as 4th in the world on her website.
Talk about cherry picking a ranking list, UCL is normally 4th-10th in the UK and hence 20th-30th in the world |
