Durham or Leeds University?!

Need to decide which uni to go to by Monday and am still struggling! I want to study BSc Psychology and the offer is AAA at both. I like Leeds because I could study a module of Spanish in the first 2 years and then study abroad or do a work placement year and the city is well connected and looks fun/ has a nice vibe. But I like Durham because it is ranked so much higher (and probably has a more consistent ranking) and the city is pretty. The college system would also be quite homely. I could do a Spanish module in the first year and study abroad but not do a placement. At Leeds would it all be about partying and drugs? Would Durham be too small and slightly dull? I'm up for partying but to a certain extent...

Well, I want a really good psychology course (I'm interested in both) but to give myself as many options as possible ie with Spanish and as good a head start in terms of work as possible. I also really want to enjoy my time there and find a crowd of my kind of people? :smile:
