Did anyone ask any med students about student satisfaction and whether they liked the course etc. yesterday? Didn't get a chance to myself :frown:

Sort of a silly question, but do you guys know how many choices you can list for accommodation? Is there even a maximum? As an international grad, I doubt I'll get one, but trying nonetheless :smile:

Thanks! I can list all but I don't need to list all if I'm not interested in half of them?

Oh right ahah - In that case you didn't really miss out on anything :tongue:

What did you think of Wolfson house btw? I've heard a mix of comments about it

It's pretty standard accommodation wise, but the huge benefit is being so close to Guy's campus. I think if you don't mind having a basic room and being on a corridor rather than in 'apartment style' buildings and you would rather be able to roll out of bed and into a lecture, it's the best place for you. Plus, it's one of the cheapest residences.
Sadly I've had the experience of staying at Wilson House (Imperial residence) and it's not even one of the best halls but it's still so nice (everything is new). Bathrooms are shared between 3 people max.

Great Dover Street seems like a nicer set-up than Wolfson with the apartments, but again rooms are basic. The best thing about being in an apartment style block is that you actually get to know the people than you're in that apartment with properly. Sometimes with the corridor arrangement people can disappear off and you end up not really getting to know your neighbours as well. :smile:

What's the difference between apartment style and whatever wolfs on is? Thanks - the terms are confusing me slightly.

Oh also, did anyone get to speak to any kings medics about how they are finding the course in general? I heard the teaching isn't that great? :/

Apartment style is where you'll have a 'cluster' of rooms sharing one common kitchen/living area type thing, whereas Wolfson House has simply rooms set along a corridor, with a kitchen and bathrooms, but no real communal space. :smile:

In great Dover apartments, do we share bathroom and toilet facilities ?
