Hi Everyone,
Sameer here, 24 years old, and studied Pharmacy previously. I'll be coming from South Devon - so the other end of the Island. Living location wise I still need to figure out where's most cost effective to be honest. But yeah, I'm also excited to get started and start the journey.

Hey guys,
I'm Reece, 32 - like Gordon I'm probably in contention for grandpa of the cohort haha. I'm from Inverness, and did chemistry as my undergrad at Heriot-Watt in Edinburgh. As for living situation I'm thinking flat-share in Dundee would probably be ideal.
