Hi folks,
Been stalking for ages, and waiting nervously, but I got offered one of the AHRC BGP scholarships at Oxford a couple of days ago (I was a reserve candidate...) - but then today I got rejected for the one at Sheffield. I have no idea how they make their choices, it seems completely arbitrary! But good luck to anyone still waiting.
Also, in my weeks of panic, I also looked at a lot of the charitable trusts. There are quite a few if your parents are in any of the public services (my dad is a police man, this is how I found that...!).
