Work hard? It's much easier to play the system
Article Abstract:
It has become increasingly common for students at UK universities to opt to do as little academic work as possible. They do enough to ensure that they pass each course or set of exams, but no more. In many cases, this is because they are disappointed with their university, especially if subject groups are very large. Others students prefer to focus on outside interests, while others have part-time jobs.

Higher degree of loneliness
Article Abstract:
Postgraduate students often feel undervalued by the universities where they are conducting their research. Certain universities have failed to take account of the specific requirements of postgraduates as they have competed strongly to increase their presence in this profitable area. This can lead to postgraduates feeling isolated, with possibly negative effects on their work.
