Thanks Shadow8230 and Salsa034848 :smile:

To all of you who are still waiting, my only advice is have your mobile phone with you at all times! I know you probably already do, but I'm very grateful I had mine... I was having lots of SIM card and phone problems and was really lucky to be able to finally have a working phone for a couple hours before the phone call, so I know not to take that for granted :P
Good luck :biggrin:

I'm still swimming too, it's so stressful!

Those stats aren't too bad - 10 people were fished from the pool last year for Linguistics (2 of them were mature though, for Wolfson), so there's definitely still hope! Three have been fished so far, right? What is it about being pooled that makes you frantically search out statistics?!

Well done to everyone who's got a place <3

It helps to pass the time I guess xP

Just have a bash at it! Everyone I met on the open day had different answers. We didn't agree on anything. :smile:

Hey guys, thought I should let you know, I was fished from the Cambridge pool today! Jesus has given me a direct offer, I'm so happy :smile:

Good luck to everybody still in the pool, there's still plenty of time, and to those already with offers - see you in October!

Hi Guys!
Still swimming in the pool - I've heard nothing yet!

So far, it seems that there have been 6 offers from Cambridge for Linguistics: one from Corpus Christi, two from Homerton, two from Pembroke and one from Newnham.
In addition, people have been pooled from - Peterhouse, King's, Clare and Emmanuel.
So that's 8 colleges pretty much full...
As you can tell this waiting has left me a little stressed xP How is everyone else doing?

who got newnham? could you quote them to me pleeease? :tongue:

I'M HEEERE :biggrin:

I'm like the only person I know who had no exams this January. I only have 6 exams in the summer - two of which are General Studies. So I've been whiling away my time on Skyrim :colondollar:
