Very useful site. I was studying at Birkbeck Uni in London and could source a lot of useful info from this forum.

TheStudentRoom is social media in its purest and most holistic form. If you took most of the social media sites that are out right now and filtered it to remove all gimmicks, marketing ploys, compromises to appeal to the masses, and every other infuriatingly unnecessary characteristics, then you'll end up with something similar to TSR.
I would have given it 5 bright stars, except for my suspicion that TSR has a hidden agenda of promoting its other main sources of income, like the academic essay writing sites MavenWriters and MarkedByTeachers

TheStudentRoom (TSR) is a student's perfect hangout place. I don't know how I've been surviving without it. It takes an entire student experience and brings it to one place. I think in a way it is what Facebook set out to be but failed to deliver. Get ALL your questions answered fully for free while maintaining anonymity. The best part about TSR is just how entertaining and addictive it is. Jokes, Games, Reviews, Debates (both hostile and friendly, but overall very enlightening), Best-fitting Recommendations on anything and everything, Music, Student Loan Application Help and Suggestions, College Eligibility Help, Career Advice, Part-time Job Help, Relevant Event News & Notifications, Fashion, Beauty, Health, Relationship Advice & Discussions, Student Resources like Grants & Loans... I could go on forever. One would think that with so much, 'the room' would be messed up in confusion or be lagging in load time and misdirection. But the site is so perfectly organized neatly with a most user-friendly interface. PERFECT... JUST PERFECT.
TSR demands TEN STARS, with no apologies.
