are you happy with the compulsory modules?
•
how much choice do you get, and when?
•
what if it turns out that the module options that interest you are not available for your year? Are there alternatives that you would be happy with?
•
ask around (but don’t believe everything you read on TSR!)
•
try and find the student handbook for current undergraduates – the style and structure of this can tell you quite a bit about the Department, much more than is in the standard prospectus.
•
check out the Students' Union and Residences sections of the uni website
•
ask your parents/school for their advice – yes, really! You don’t have to take it, but you might be surprised by what they say.
