Noice! :biggrin: I heard Norwood is really good! Not my personal choice purely because I like to 'get' to places. I.e. would rather a 10 minute walk to the bar than a couple of minutes! Lol but I'm a freak. :jive:

I don't think any accommodation is "bad" so it should be good either way! Do you get to look at accommodation on offer holder open days? I didn't go so I don't know lol :tongue:

Yeah it looks nice! No that does make sense. What accommodation are you looking at? No none of them look bad which is good :smile: I hope so, I did at other similar open days so hopefully :smile:

I'm thinking Marlborough / solsbury, but I know that's like a fight to the death! :wink:

Also like the look of Westwood over woodland as apparently woodland has kitchen groups of like 16 but Westwood has houses of 15-20 but 2 kitchens so less people to share a sink with! :tongue:

Haha yeah! Im not too fussed about ensuite so I ruled it out. Westwood is second on my list! Although im not sure how it works sharing more than one kitchen? Is it split into flats or is it like there's actually 2 kitchens haha

From what I gathered, the group is split into two so each person is allocated to a specific kitchen...bit confused myself lol :tongue:

Ohh nice! Have fun!

Depends what you're after! Generally, I've heard that the 'catered' option isn't the greatest and that City accommodation could make socialising harder as most happens on campus. But I don't think any are 'bad'.

If you're not fussed about ensuite, apparently Norwood is great! :biggrin:

I will put Durham as my insurance...it is a bit risky, but since hku offers me AAC, so I still have a back-up.
How about you? :smile:

Ahh cool! I've gone with York for the Psychology in Education course as it's ABB so if I do get hit by a bus/appendicitis (my friend go it last year and missed most of her exams!) there may still be hope :P. I'm scared to make such risky choices but yours looks good! However, I hope we don't have to use them!

York is a great institution, and I remember that you are interested in educational psychology, right? It sounds like a great course!
It definitely makes sense to make less risky choices, after all there might be unexpected problems :s-smilie:
Really hope that neither of us will need to go through clearing :frown: Good luck on your exam! :biggrin:
