I'm currently at brackenhurst doing Bsc wildlife conservation. i think the course has its ups and downs, the best bit is actually going out and doing some practical work, especially the week out in spain in the second year, beautiful and brilliant. like metalfish says some of the staff are a bit rubbish, but some are absolutely fantastic and really know their stuff.
as for living in the middle of nowhere, i lived there in my first year and didn't like it much, but moved to nottingham for my 2nd and 3rd years which is fine, if you dont mind 40mins to get there on the bus.
the course covers stuff from habitat management and biodiversity surveying to more 'sciency' stuff like anatomy, health and genetics. theres very good ecology modules as well with dr nick ray, he is very knowledgeable, but hard to get on with!

hope this helps and if you have any questions don't hesitate to ask!!!
