    I guess that's true. I have no intention of going to LSE, so hopefully Warwick will be a sufficient springboard!
    Warwick should get you a place at a Law Firm from name alone. I know it's wrong but it's pretty much how the top companies work. They simply go on rep.

    also whats the employment prospects like? I'm at aston doing maths with economics 1st year, and I'm just wondering whether or not its worth leaving that degree with high employment to go Notts, even though I know I'd enjoy Notts way more. Help please!

    If you don't get to choose, you'll be put in a hall based on what room type you apply for. I am at Broadgate currently though, so I can't tell you which halls have what room type etc.


    p.s. Broadgate is amazing you should come here *nods*

    If you don't want 2000 people chanting 'If you can't cook your dinner you're a ...' chants, Broadgate is the one. Honestly can't express how much I love it here. It works out cheaper too if you budget well enough for food etc than going catered

    Ooh okay I thought it may have been more expensive than catered! Do you know if it's a long walk to the chemistry department from Broadgate? (What I've applied for)
    & I accidentally negged you instead of quoted so I'll give you rep when it will let me *facepalm* sorry!
