    Sounds good. Do you mind me asking where you moved from?:p:
    Well, I used to live in Netherlands, and moved here 3 years ago. I wanted to go to somalia in my upcoming gap year, but the whole ethiopians vs somali thing is putting me off.

    would you say Somalis are "well-represented" at Imperial.

    I wouldn't know:p: I hope missfizzy could answer that But I do assume we are "well represented" because its a university, not high-school :p:

    Nope.

    There is so far one person that might be a Somali (actually most likely is...it's the curse/blessing...you can always tell).

    Aside from that, I have yet to see another Somali on campus.

    I've met quite a few Somali sisters studying Sciences and the like but they were all from UCL or QM (ISOC sisters meetings lol). I know City and SOAS have a massive Somali population (have 2 cousins going there and they've told me.)
