Economics workload?

I have been offered a place at Girton to study economics for next year.

firstly, i was pooled there, so i don't know that much what it is like. anyone go there and love it/hate it? or have a view on it for whatever reason?

and more importantly, i have heard that economics students at cambridge get 3 essays a week on top of their lectures and tutorials. is this true? and how long are these essay on average?
thanks

I haven't quite got used to that idea yet.. I love my Saturday mornings :redface:
