University of Nottingham 09!

Well on the summer school obviously I didn't have that much stuff, but there should be enough room for everything, especially if you keep stuff under the bed. And the desk is a normal size, so I'm not sure if you could fit the tv, laptop, and work on all at once, but you have a bedside cabinet you could put the tv on instead though.

I really wish all my friends would stop going on about the crime rate - it's really starting to make me anxious.

We live in London, which to a lot of people is viewed as the gang-infested, gun city of England. Whereas we know that it's only a few renowned areas, that if you don't go into, you'll be fine.

I think Nottingham's exactly like that. Besides, most of the time's spent on campus or in the city centre, which is pretty much dominated by students anyway!

oh i havent sent that flaming picture yet.

sorry,what picture?! am i meant to send one in?!

We were sent an email telling us to send a passport photo [digitally] of ourselves ASAP. I got mine a very long while ago. Check your Junk mail, perhaps it's hiding away in there.

The photo thing totally slipped my mind. If it doesn't have to be like a traditional passport photo then perhaps I'll just resize an existing photo of mine. If it does, then I'll have to stop being so lazy. =[

Mine was a passport photo, but if it's a good photo then you should be fine. Read this thread => http://www.thestudentroom.co.uk/showthread.php?p=19933763&highlight=photo#post19933763

I think that the photo needs to be clear and show your face without anything cover it, like sunglasses etc. It's used for your Uni card which you show in examinations so they can identify you

Not sure if anyone here can help me, but can someone point me in the right direction?
I'm starting english at nottingham in september but have no idea where to find the books on the reading list
Anyone in the same position?

Thanks for the link =]

Ah, I guess I'll just take a new picture of myself. Passport photos tend to require neutral facial expressions, face-on, hair completely away from the face etc. My idea of a photographic nightmare. =O

I'll do it tomorrow when I [hopefully] won't look half-dead due to lack of sleep. hehe.

By the way, do you know if the people that work at the university [professors, heads of schools etc.] are still there or have they skipped away for the summer?

Have you tried Amazon? Or if you get the reference number of the books your coluld order them in at places like Watertones. Also check whether any of the second years are likely to sell them in September as they might be cheaper then.

hmmm I'm entirely sure actually You could try ringing the office of the department where the professor works, they'll definitely have more information on it

Definitely check your noticeboard, I know that in the Economics department the books are stuck up on the board at a pretty good price compared to Amazon. It's sometimes cheaper buying from 2nd years since there's no postage to pay either
