A Bait and Switch scheme Revised
I got completely scammed They titled a course Computer Science and Machine Learning and added matching course descriptions and images Was actually a Game Development course titled that way so that more people would be attracted Locations were also switched from Christ s College Cambridge to Royal Hospital School Holbrook Definitely not recommended I feel cheated out of my money and my time Edit Thank you Kirsty for replying It s been about 8 months but I d like to address a few points Food and rooms were acceptable those claims were made during my stay and in hindsight I made a few mistakes and unprovable claims I still stand by my claims on location because those were hidden from view in a website redesign which was quite scummy and I am absolutely not doubting Alfie in any way The man was great and he taught what he had to teach wonderfully my complaints have nothing to do with him The guest lecture was also great and that was what I envisioned for the course which is why I didn t mention it during my original review If everything was like those last two points this could ve been an easy 5-star course Too bad that machine learning covered 2 14 days of the course except for Alfie s amazing work and the rest was game design Again covered by a smooth website redesign but I digress The claims about my parents being satisfied are completely baseless and as their son I can assure you they are and have no e-mail proof This all being said I raised my review by one star just because of me reviewing my previous statements and seeing they were utterly false as well as appreciating that these reviews are actually read and listened to in some capacity I will not be changing the title of the review aside from adding Revised and I will not be altering its contents any further All in all this course was a good social experience An educational one not so much Cheers
