2. How easy is it to get a job? (I'm in the medical field, radiography to be exact)
3. Which city is the cheapest buh best city to start? What is the cost of living(rent)?
4. Is it really hard to save money in UK?
5. How much can i survive on for a month?

No offence but i know you're trying to be funny, but try to use your head...not everything is a joke.
If you don't have a reasonable answer then keep your dry jokes to yourself. I'm here to get useful information, not to waste time on people like you.

To be honest, a Google search would have answered most of your questions. But then to answer the questions

1. This is literally most Nigerians dream. If you have the opportunity, then by all means, go for it.

2. Can't say tbh

3. A Google search would probably do

4. Just like every other place, if you earn well and are frugal enough, you should able to save something. It's dependent on your income, your location, how frugal you are, etc

5. Another Google question but with a targeted search to the location of your school of interest

6. Yes, and like someone mentioned, 20 hours a week

Thanks a lot, and i just found out that manchester is a nice city to start. My main problem was if i could easily save money (it's in my blood to do so, i grew up with the mentality).

Switch to Ace or Small world. Their rates are quite good atm. With a little caveat though.

Ace delivers faster for me. Haven't tried small world yet.
