Does anybody know?

Yeah Asgsoft was right I think SGUL try to let you know within two weeks. I think when I applied they said 10 working days but I think I found out within about only 6 days. For those placed on the waiting list they tend not to find out the final decision to about May time.

Is there anything that SGUL are particularly looking for in interviews,
eg. Kings apparantly like ethical people...or so I hear

its a low ratio since they interview lots of people. So I guess you need to do amazing in the interview :|

When I was at the open day talk, the woman was talking about some figures and I was at the back working out the ratios. She claimed it's about 1:8 at the first stage, then 1:4 at the interview stage. At the end I quizzed her about it because I thought it was weird they knock out 50% of applicants before interview, when they claim to interview everyone. She then laughed and admitted she'd got her figures wrong . I'd say it's more 1:8. But then they make roughly 2 offers for one place, so it could be closer to 1:5 .

The assumption that SGUL are interviewing as they recieved UCAS applications is incorrect. In my school, everyone's application was sent off at the same time yet some students have interviews and some have heard nothing. I think it's random? Or they're picking a certain way that we don't know about...? Or they hate half of my school

Well i guess it is infact totally random.

Anyway this forum makes me panic. I sent my application on the 15th (last day, i know!) Only got an acknowledgement letter up till now and its freaky how people have started receiving interview calls.

Bloody hell, they had cubicles and voice recording instructions being played out when I walked past during lunch. Very OSCE-esque.

Hope it went well for those of you who had your interviews today!
