Congratulations to everyone who got into Warwick! You are all now about to study at an internationally respected university, and destined for greatness. I would like to take this opportunity to introduce to you the society MyMillions Investment, a virtual trading game. Join for a great learning and social experience and a great addition to your CV. Check out the Warwick Society website for more details!
Course: Theatre and Performance Studies (yet to see anyone on this thread doing the same!)
Grades, A levels/IB (optional):A*A*A*A
Accommodation choices: Desperately hoping for Cryfield, it's the only one I can afford! (Again, have seen very few people with this as their first choice, )
Societies/sports: Any (and many) drama societies, Shakespeare society, Warwick Glee, hopefully there's a badminton club. I don't know if I dare join the poker club, but I want to!
Reaction (how you feel now): Ecstatic! I don't want to wait another month to start!
Cool, congrats! The Labour club looks pretty good at Warwick. Have you been involved in Young Labour at all before?
I don't really follow party politics in precise detail; I'm more into political philosophy. I am centre-right politically, so I'm a bit of a red Tory, or blue Labour supporter if you get what I mean.
I'm quite self-contained when it comes to politics; I think if you're going to do something, you have to do it really well. Sometimes I feel overcome by the stress of political philosophy: why is inequality fair? Yet at other times, I feel totally opposed to the idea of distributive justice.
What political society do you believe I should consider joining, based on my philosophical ambivalence?

I'd still suggest that you give the Labour club a go. I attended the youth conference last year, and there's a massive range of differences in opinion on ideologies and philosophy. I can remember that there was one guy who actually supported the Republican party and believed strongly in private education, all the way down to a sizeable (and very vocal) communist faction, so it's a wide church in that respect. Merely joining a club doesn't necessarily infer anything, I believe Ed Balls joined the Conservative association in Oxford just for the speakers. I would've said the Lib Dem club, but I imagine its relatively small, especially now.
There are also from what I gather just normal debating societies which I'd imagine debate that kind of stuff and of course then there's the politics society which will be good to meet like minded people anyway
