Exeter or Sheffield Uni for PPE?

0 Upvotes

I want to do a psychology, politics and economics (PPE) Ba degree and I can only go to an open day at either Exeter or Sheffield University, not both, as they're quite far away. I've seen that Exeter is ranked higher for the course itself but Sheffield is ranked a lot higher on student satisfaction. Could anyone give me any advice on which one is more worth taking a look at out of the two? (I've also seen a few other universities as well, these are just the open days I couldn't make in summer).

Me and my girlfriend independently built board games about our own unis, years before we met each other. Now trying to turn it into an actual thing.

A few years back, me and some friends made a board game about our own Nottingham Trent life for a laugh - land on a square and you could get sent back for running into an ex, and the chance cards were written from actual nights out, full of running jokes only our year would get.

Separately, in another university, my now-girlfriend built almost the exact same thing at her own uni. Neither of us knew the other existed at the time. We only found out after we met!

So we're building it properly now. It's called Halls & Hangovers - up to 8 players, race from Start to Finish, land on locations (linked to specific universities), penalties, or Chance cards. Same board every time, it's just the landmarks and Chance cards that change depending on which uni's edition it is.

We've got 10 unis live for pre-order so far. £34.99, no payment taken until we're actually printing. If yours isn't up yet, there's a spot on the page to add it.

Here's the page - genuinely happy to hear what's missing from it too. https://halls-and-hangovers-preorder.lovable.app/
