    Obvs you can't pick your housemates, but i'm sure you'd be fine!
    All halls are good for parties, obvs depending on who you live with, but if you get stuck with **** housemates you've always got next door and all around.

    You don't really want gillwell as it's a bit skanky or alexandra works because it's far from uni - but they do have good parties too :}
    It doesn't really matter about preparties anyway because there's so many places to go that are good

    I guess it depends on who you end up with, I found though that Francis Drake has quite a party atmosphere as there are usually 8-10 people in a flat. In my first year I was in Robbins which is divided into blocks, We lived with the resident assistant so it mean't no real parties for us however the top floor flat always generally had parties.

    Although you don't get to choose who your housemates/flatmates are, you will still have a good time no matter what hall you are in! Every hall is different and you can always meet other people in the flats around yours. I spent most of my time upstairs with another flat!!

    I think they might have another bar crawl like they did for us last year! Although I went to do something different, you meet so many new people!

    You don't get to choose your halls so its luck of the draw really. You can narrow it down to the contract dates though, 40 week contracts are Radnor, Pilgrim and Robbins which my mate who's already there said are all decent! It'll be fun where every you go, most people will be up for a laugh!
