    Hi, I'm a second year student and although I signed up for countless clubs and socs as a fresher I never actually got involved in any of them. Really regretting that now since I've only a year left but would it be a bit weird to get involved in final year? I feel like I haven't been making the most of college life but don't want to feel like a complete weirdo either... Thoughts? :confused:

    No need to worry at all. Just throw yourself into it! You will come across cliques though but that's part of the college experience in general.

    Nope, never too late. I joined PhySoc in 3rd yr and LGBT soc in 4th year. Didn't feel weird or anything, though I do regret no doing it sooner.

    If you don't go for it now, you'll regret it later.

    Sure most AGM's for societies are happening now, so if you want to get really involved (like being on a committee) next year then get looking for when they're on! Clubs are always looking for new members they definitely wouldn't turn you away any time of the year ( apart from maybe varsities training :D ) .
