It's the evil other users that click onto the thread and want to dash your hopes. 13 now as well...

I think this has been mentioned before. TSR users are usually classed as the higher end and it gets a bad reputation because of it. Those that get those grades are more likely to tell you than others for example. In the scheme of things 13 people isn't really a threat to anyone hah. I wouldn't pay too much attention to the percentages either; 10% of all applicants are not expected to have 99-100

You're right. I found my login details and there was no changes in the VIP Bristol page. So it's 100% Southampton. Thanks.

JS - when I got an offer from Bristol there were no changes on the VIP page

Made a Cambridge Economics interview tips thread here: http://www.thestudentroom.co.uk/showthread.php?t=2936073

Would be beneficial for all of us to share ideas/tips. Would be great if those that have been through the process could post things that they would have done better in preparation.

Yeah cheers. I understood when I realised you were talking about every exam and the probability of that. I thought you were just talking about one exam and therefore 5/8 would be right. You seem to know your stats aye! What are you doing now, A levels or you at Uni?

Congratulations to you too! Yeah I don't know specifics either, I presume it's their typical offer A*AA.

Anyone else got offers from York? :smile:

It's hard to decide between there and KCL (provided I get an offer from KCL)

Hello!! YES another mature student! I have applied for HSPS at Lucy Cav, which is for over 21 year old females and heavily international :smile:

(So I am told)

Fabulous, I haven't spoken to anyone applying for Lucy. How are you getting on with choosing the work to send?

Hey. I'm a mature student but took a risk
and applied for a standard age college. Where have you applied and which course?

Hi,

I applied for PBS at Lucy. I don't think it makes a diiference. I went to Summer school at St. Cat's and they said it doesn't matter.

Evillllll

I don't know how many would be genuine though... Like I seem to be lying in the median. Which is quite bizarre, imagine that, c95% and only being in the median, if not below!

There is a reason why Cambridge never ask you for your average UMS anywhere on the form. They want each UMS in each paper. The UMS they calculate is often not the one you think or want them to calculate.some of those that think they have very high UMS may be surprised how cambridge actually rank them.
