Living with first years as I did can be extremely annoying so knowing which flats to live is advisable.

In my opinion:
Most people loved it.
Important factors in my choice
(1) Unimportant – (4) Very important
Personal recommendation
Enjoy the nightlife, try to travel as much as possible especially at the beginning (Scotland, Wales, Irland) and discover the nice places in B'ham and around.
Do bare in mind that a first (A) is quite hard to achieve wheras the span of a 2:1 (B) is large and relatively easy to achieve.

When you arrive in your accomondation. There is nothing in the room. You dont even have coathangers. So there is a Poundland, its directly at the train station. They have cheap stuff for household. Than you have no blanket- go to open market. You will get it there pretty cheap!

Its cheaper to travel by bus- National Express. Its at Digbeth Station. In January there is a trip from ACRA. You should definetly take a part.
Exams period is quite stressful. Take lot of time for revision. And if you have questions or problems ask your teacher. Exams are very serious at Aston. Good Luck!
