  1. Hi, I was just reading a thread on reapplying to oxford as I was rejected pre interview from st johns and was wandering if you could help me.
    firstly, do you think they will in any way look down upon someone redoing an A level module in the year they reapplied.

    Secondly, if you don't mind me asking, what do you feel made your application that much better the second time around.

    P.s. I wish to reapply for law.

    Thanks for your help

  4. Hey man,

    Do you have any tips for the TSA for Oxford, I am really struggling with it!!
  5. cool i'm going back on the 15th too, although probably just to work. i'm super unproductive at home...i keep on getting distracted, which isn't helped by the fact that at the moment it looks like i will be going to London twice in the next two weeks :/ everything is so much more fun than staying at home in dreary Northumberland and working

    and aha yeah they do. have to get a 2:1 or resit, wonderful. shouldn't be too bad though, the modules i did last term were a lot nicer than the ones in Michaelmas, I think. apparently this term is the first time people from Exeter aren't allowed to cheat in collections, or something?!
  6. ah Adam I'm missing Oxford so much!
  7. Good stuff on your blog.
  8. Hey, sorry you might get asked this question all the time but can I ask how you prepared your UCAS for PPE? As in, were there any particular books you read that helped write your personal statement and made you stand out as an applicant?

    Also, do you really need all A*'s at GCSE to get an interview, or can you get in with some A*'s, As and Bs?

    Thanks, would be grateful if you could help me out.

    Hey there, I noticed you are doing PPE at Oxford. I am currently in Year 12 and am very interested in taking the subject. It would be great to hear what somebody who has actually been accepted for the course, what books did you read? How did you prepare?

    Cheers.
