I haven't finished high school yet and I'm not from the UK, so that's why I'm trying to get some information, to make sure that when the time comes I choose the right place where to study.

I am mostly interested in nuclear physics.

Depends what you want to do. I wanted to study Physics with a "Space Science" slant, and so that tied me down to Southampton, The University of Kent at Canterbury, and Leicester, although I guess by now other universities may provide suitable courses. I went to Kent at Canterbury and found it to be great, although I would be first to admit that its reputation is as a moderately respectable rather than top-flight university. However, the degree I earned has served me well over the last 8 years (although I no longer work in the space industry).

Imperial, St. Andrews, Bristol, Durham, Warwick are excellent universities for physics. Manchester is quite reputable for physics as well - its strength tends to be towards physics/chemistry/maths i.e. the sciences rather than the arts.

University College London, if you can't get into Cambridge. But there's so many students there now, 3 times as many as when I was there, that I don't know how diluted the teaching might have become.

try studying in your own country instead of bleeding the UK dry with the need for foreign university places. I am sure physics exists there!!!

No contest' it's Southampton

although the next person has given really good advice. By the way you are leaving it a bit late to apply.
