Would u go to the same uni as your bro or sis?
And if u did, would u live in the same place?
Does it depend on how close u r together, or whther its your bro or sis whos there?

Why or why not?

just asking! :rolleyes:

If my sister ever wanted to go to the same uni as me (shes 3 years younger) then I wouldnt see it as a problem! wouldnt want to live with her, tho.

ye, it can be a recipe for disaster to live together, because you might want to "experiment" with things that she isnt happy with etc etc. and you dont want everything reported back home. You should have a problem being at the same uni, and you'll have someone close by who can be there for you if you need someone. Its the one thing that I dont have, because im nowhere near anyone i need to be with when im upset :frown:

its not fair.

if it was my bro then yes because i vaguely get on with him despite not being close. if it was my sister no because she would drive me insane.

If my sister came to study close to where I study I wouldn't mind sharing a place with her. She's more like me than any of the asshats I've met so far and lived with her most of my life.

My sister really wants to go to the same uni as me. Grade pending I'll be going to Oxford next year, and she will be applying to start in 2007. She has always really wanted to go to Oxford, (neither of us really considered Cambridge because we have lived there all our lives) so obviously if she gets in she will go. I very much doubt we'd live in the same place though. I mean we get on really well... sometimes... but more to the point we both see university as kind of an opportunity to get away from your family!

i think it really depends on how well you get along with your sibling and what kind of relationship you have. if the fact that your related will always be brought up, that might be a problem. or if they're not the same gender as you, it might be akward bringing home a date or vice versa. stuff like that really depends on the relationship, but going to the same uni really isn't a bad idea at all. they're pretty big, if you need space, it wont be impossible to find.

I went up to Cambridge the year after my brother so there was quite a long overlap in terms of our time there. Tbh we barely saw each other - we did different courses at different colleges but it was nice 'cos when I was ill once he brought me some grapes!
