    I'm going to Leeds (hopefully- BBB offer and got high As for AS so unless something goes super wrong I should be there). Can't wait! To do economics by the way...

    I so know what you mean about the accommodation thing... sooo hard to choose. I'm going to go to the accommodation viewing day in May. Should definately help me!

    Do you know anything about the open day other than the date? Is there transport between the places or what? Or do we have to make our way around? I can't seem to work out what will happen

    Charles Morris is probably the closesy to the Worsley building. Henry Price is on campus as well so is a 5 minute walk across campus, as are Ellerslie Hall and Lyddon Hall. Otherwise your looking at a bus ride every morning.

    I'm at Leeds at the minute (in my final year, how scary!) and I'm happy to answer any more specific questions about the university and the city if you just PM me. x.

    Wow! I wish I'd done an interesting course, straight maths is so dull!

    The AI involves loads of different things like image and speech processing to actual robotics. The more I read around the subject the more interested I become . Having said that, I also love Maths so hopefully I'm gonna have a great time!!
