Psychology firmers 2013?

Come on, I know you're out there. :biggrin:

What do you think of our timetable (if you've already enrolled)? It doesn't look too bad, except the 9am lecture on the Wednesday. :unimpressed:

me!

I don't think the timetable looks too bad either, I'm so looking forward to only having to get up early one morning a week instead of five!
What college are you applying to?

Hello

Yeah the timetable looks pretty good, I don't know if it's finished yet as it only has lectures on it though. Quite exciting :tongue:

although I'm kind of nervous as well

Haha, I can see that you're quite the optimist, aren't you? :tongue:

Unfortunately, one year of uni with no 9am lectures has made me even more of a 'glass half-empty' person when it comes to early starts. :redface:

I've decided to look for private sector accommodation instead. Have been dragging my feet over it but hope to get it sorted soon.

Yeah, I thought that was a bit odd too.....do we only have lectures and practicals in the first term? Aye, everyone's a bit nervous before starting uni but you'll be so busy with student life and the hecticness of the first week that the nerves will soon disappear!

Yeah, I think we have classes as well, but I'm not totally sure, it'd be strange with just lectures :tongue:

How come you've already done a year of uni? :smile:

Haha, well after working full time all summer in a really boring job, uni has to be better :P I'm also going to be living in private sector accommodation :smile:

Have you already been in York for a year then or are you coming from a different uni?

Hello

I'm actually going to be living off campus but I've joined Vanbrugh, although if I were living on campus i would have been tempted by James as its so close to Psychology :P

Well I did a year of neuroscience before realising that all that biochemistry and physiology wasn't for me, and that I'm not that much of a science-y person.....quite a costly mistake to make :redface:

but I don't regret it.

Sounds good :smile:

I already had my grades so mine's all done. I went for premium ensuite but have just realised that the rooms don't have a tv aerial :frown:

I'm looking forward to going so much though :biggrin:

Yeah, finally got it sorted. I found a place near the city centre about 20 - 25 mins walk from the campus which is a little further but I'm the kind of person who likes to walk everywhere within reason. Plus, it's good exercise and I've heard the route to uni is quite scenic. :tongue:

Which college have you chosen to be a member of? Have no idea which to go for as I'm not aware of the differences between them other than distance to the psychology building.
