I'm so glad I did as I probably wouldn't have got in without it. What accommodation are you staying in?

I'm doing Biology, I was going to stay in halls but I didn't get the ones I wanted so I'm just going to compute, hopefully I won't miss out on everything - the uni halls experience etc :frown:

Hoping to meet as many people as possible - so excited!!!

Any questions you have about the course? I'm just about to start my final year.

I can give you some advice. You'll be told it is essential you buy a book called Life: The Science of Biology. I wouldn't bother. It is a crap book that you'll rarely use and there are over 50 copies in the library.
