Oxford students spend the second most amount of time studying

We should be first surely


Oxford students are the second best in the country for dedicating time to the reason they went to university, to study.

According to new data released by the Natwest Student Living Index 2016, Oxford students spend 40.49 hours per month studying, a figure only beaten by Cambridge, who’s student clock up a massive 47.62 hours of studying every month.

In third place was Sheffield with 35.08 hours per month, followed by London students with 32.71 hours.

The average student dedicates 30.77 hours to the library each month with Leicester students spend the least amount of time studying, only 24.32 hours. Other low scorers include Liverpool, Leeds, Portsmouth and Brighton.

Being charged £9k a year to be at university means that you should spend most of that time studying. Yes, there’s time to have fun too, but what’s the point of grafting to get into Oxford to not do any work and come out of it with a 2:2?
