<p>Has anyone done this in the past? The deadline is August 1.</p>
<p>I haven’t, but some friends have. They liked the people they went with and seemed to have a good time. They all met up for monthly lunch for a long while after the trip.</p>
<p>It’s London in winter, typical sight-seeing. If that sounds appealing to you, go. But if that doesn’t sound appealing, don’t feel pressure: there are lots of other opportunities for trips through various departments and honors/scholars.</p>
