Hey u :smile:
I do IB so my offer is IB-based. :cry2:
I am guessing its your province's high school diploma system, like Ontario's is OSSD. :smile:


What sort of score do they require? In any case you should be ok. You had the grades so far and now you have something to drive you forward . :biggrin:
Offer, Got it at 17.04 on Thursdayy! :biggrin: So happy!!
Offer! :biggrin: NO idea how I'm gonna fund it though, being a graduate already :s-smilie:...hello bank loans?

Still waiting to hear from Newcastle & Durham!

36 IB (6,6,5 at HL)
Definitely, going to start 2 months of hard core revision in March and April (don't want to burn out too early or forget stuff).
CONGRATS btw. :smile:

Rejected, it just feels awful that they think you are not good enough and the thing is I thought this interview had gone well so now I'm worried for all the other interview results.
The one saving grace is that I have an offer so at least somewhere thinks I'm good enough! Can't help feeling disappointed though.

Anyway, many congratulations to those who have offers I hope it is the first of many! :smile: And all the best for getting As!

I got rejected too! A 10 hour flight and spent so much money only to get rejected!
I got one more university pending, probably be unsuccessful though given that I just must have messed up my interview there badly as well! I thought my HYMS one was good as well!
Hey does anyone know when we find out if we are assigned to the Hull or York campus?

I believe once all decisions have been made - June/July?

Got my letter in the post this morning. They say it's once everyone has made a decision on whether they are going to HYMS, which is usually about June time. People who have it as their insurance find out in August. :smile:

Yeah never know! Maybe the other uni (BSMS btw) thought differently to the HYMS one!! But I guess I have convinced myself that something good will come out of this. So I will keep hoping :smile:!

Have people got offers of AAA or AAAb?
And I was wondering about the offers holder day too - when do we go to see accommodation etc?

Okay thanks!
I would love to go there but Newcastle and Leicester are my first choices. I haven't got an offer from either yet so at the moment HYMS is my firm :tongue:
Also the offer says that the b is excluding further maths which means I have to get an A in further maths. I'm going to email them to make sure the offer is right :L

Ps. We can't have a medicine offer as an insurance can we (if for example you're offered AAAb(firm) and then AAA(insurance)) ?

No probs. :smile:
Ah,I see, good luck at your other choices, I think Newcastle gives all decisions in March. Newcastle is really pretty according to my friends there. :love:
That is completely possible because they may have specified the conditions different. one tsr user has Oxford as firm, AAA and KCL as insurance: AAAb

Thank you!
Do you have an offer at HYMS too? And newcastle is a gorgeous university!!

Really!!!? My friends at school said that you can only pick one out of your 4 med schools and medics and dentists (possibly vets) can't have an insurance! :confused:
Edit: I can't find any information to back this up so it's most likely untrue.

Yeah, I got an offer on thursday but it is an IB offer.
No way, I think they are genuinely confused, you can pick a firm and insurance, if you view the medic and applicant profile thread, then people there picked a firm/insurance. If ur offer is unconditional, then you can only have a firm.

Oh congrats!! Are you firming it?
And yeah I will clear things up tomorrow :tongue:
Thank you for making me aware of it - else I would've rejected three and kept one!! :redface:

I might be insuring it, but going to make up my mind in a week or so. At the moment, need to complete IB coursework. :redface:
That would be a smart idea. :tongue:
No problems, that wouldn't have been wise. :redface: I think a lot of medics don't keep insurance because it is AAA across the board (typically) but it might be a good idea, some offers are so specific while others are a bit more general :smile:

From what I remember your offer depends on the subjects you're taking and on AS grades - so they can vary a bit. For those that got rejected, HYMS loves reapplicants so apply again should you not get in anywhere else. Congrats to those who got offers - you've just gotta hope for York now!

All the dull people are in York :tongue:
