Oxford, and the place out in the marshes.

It's not that there aren't massive lectures, tutorials are in addition to those.

Not bad value actually, despite what I said earlier. You do get to ask about whatever your mental block is, and the tutor is gonna know. But studying is time consuming, an hour is not as much time as it seems. You probably learn the most on your own, which nowadays ought to mean on the internet.

Yeah, the idea was/is that you spend 5-10hrs studying for every hour in tutorial. You got what you put in.
Oh I thought it was accross the pond. I knew about Oxford etc. but for whatever reason I took it to be in the Colonies.
On that side I suspect some of the smaller liberal arts colleges are your best bet for small classes. But I'm no expert on the overseas possessions.
