Hi all,

Just making this thread as I'm off to university next year to live in halls. I just wanted to pick the brains of some real people who I actually 'know' who've gone to university (and places like The Student Room seem TOXIC). to give some proper advice. Is there anything you think i should know about moving into halls that isn't exactly publicised? Will I really not eat? Is life in halls really as good as its made out? Is it wise to get a job? Just anything you think I should know/you'd have told yourself if you'd known in hindsight.

Thank you!
