hey all, all i can say is if you find people startin the course at the same time, defo try and meet and get to kno eachother first, sort out somewhere to stay til xmas etc. it will definately be helpful. i was lucky enough to meet someone on the course before startin last september but most people didnt and some of them wer living alone away from every1 else whereas we managed to get a short let on a flat and it was 3 months of laughs
