Rejection really does suck!

Ah you're sorted then! Even though it's a steep offer! I didn't apply to Kings because I already have my A levels and my A*s aren't traditional subjects. I half wish I'd have given it a shot now. But now I think my first choice will be Bristol or Nottingham...or Warwick haha I don't know! I really need to go and visit. But whichever Uni I end up at I WILL go to Oxford for my grad degree, they will not reject me again :P

I sent my UCAS application on the 13th December to:
SOAS
City
Brunel
etcetc (rubbish ones)
So far, I have a conditional from Brunel recieved on the 20th December, for AAB

They're all really great unis! Good luck choosing haha

I'm sure you will get in for postgrad. With grades like yours, you will do amazingly well at your degree and Oxford will have no choice but to accept you!

I'm hoping to apply to universities in the US after my degree for postgrad.

How long do Southampton take to give out offers?

you bet.. apart from all the revision I need to do to make sure I actually get there.

[Retro.spex]

I know making assumptions is not very helpful, but do you think if Nottingham were going to reject me they would do it sooner rather than later?

Hi there!

Also, be wary of Manchester; like LSE, they place a LOT of emphasis on GCSE grades (disproportionate in my view) and dislike A Levels like Law and Psychology for some reason. (Again, unjustifiably in my view.)

Be careful of listening to others without checking with Universities directly first. Manchester state:
We prefer to see at least 2 traditional subjects in your A-Level choices, however we welcome all subjects from Arts, Humanities, Mathematics & Science provided they have an academic content of at least 70%.

After having spoken to them they actually consider Psychology and Sociology as Traditional and Law is fine, especially if combined with two traditional subjects.

AND they do not place a LOT of emphasis on GCSE's they set a guidance requirement of 5 A's at GCSE including English Language and a B in Maths.
