Answer 1

Aberdeen is a great place, very friendly folk and plenty to do.  Lots of nightclubs, pubs, 3 cinemas, nice beach and plenty of shopping.  It can be cold and miserable when the weather is horrible like today, but when summer is here and the sun is shining, its great.

Answer 2

not sure but if you dont like it apply to another univerity wile ur at it

Answer 3

Some of my cousins go there :) They both made friends quickly so yeah it is a friendly place. It doesn't matter that you're foreign, you'll be treated the same as everyone else as there will be a lot of foreign people. It can get really cold in the winter, but that just means you have snow to look forward to! Although cold its not gloomy, and it isn't cold all year round. And as its a city, there is always lots to do. Hope you enjoy it!

Answer 4

Having grown up in Aberdeen I can safely say it is the worst city in Britain.  Full of drunkards, idiots, racists, psychopaths and the terminally stupid.
