What are people doing 'bout Accommadation?

[agneishd]

So then i recieved an e-mail asking to register and choose

really tough choices, as the price gets steeper as you want to live closer to the campus (obviously)

just wondering if any current students would tell us more about what their halls are like, t'would be helpful

[moonshine]

im in such a muddle... i cant even decide what kind of room to get let alone which halls...

[koalabear]

wooo cant wait til imperial in october!

[koalabear]

i hope i get 1 of my choices cuz i dont wana b in the accomodation 40 minutes away by tube. thats aaaaaaaages.

squee im excited *insert number of days it is til uni*

i havent done bio A2 do ya reckon i shud learn some of it or will it all b covered in the first year anyway?

[jdr06]

bio is all covered, you wont struggle, thats pretty much what first term is more or less (little bit harder). the best value rooms/halls are wilson in paddington and evelyn gardens. i was in evelyn and i think they are the best set of halls by far.

whats the diff between twin and double? and if you put that down does it mean you're allocated with a random other? and whats this under18 rule? does that mean 18 and younger?

questions questions...

[voltonar]

a twin room means you'll get a roommate whereas a double means you get a double room all to yourself you usually have to pay more i think and its pure luck whether you get one or not

although can't help on the under 18 rule

[agneishd]

really, they would assign you a random roommate? (i'd guess as there doesn't seem to be a way to request someone else you know)

interesting

[moonshine]

i cant think of one positive for a twin room cept the price, but i'm open to suggestions?

[agneishd]

yeh it just seems... crazy! living with someone you've never met before

guess thats the price of London though
maybe those who don't get a single room and don't want to pay higher than a certain price bracket are forced to live in a twin room?

some may want to live with someone, make friends and "room"

dunno though...
