Re: The "waiting for news is driving me crazy" uberthread 2011-12Good to see you've got the other offers, I can remember you were waiting for ages for most of them(Original post by Beebumble)
Oh I feel for you all still waiting.
I'm only waiting on Sussex but they said they won't let me know until the 20th so I can relax.
Sending you all loads of offer vibes!

My first three came quite quickly but typically my top two took forever!

What was your other top uni?
Going to visit Essex again in March just to be sure I want to firm it been to the most of the others so hopefully I'll be all sorted by March and only to worry getting the grades.

Re: The "waiting for news is driving me crazy" uberthread 2011-12Possibly Bristol? I'm not too sure. Is Edinburgh yours?(Original post by Gales)
Still waiting on my top 2
I've applied for French and Spanish, but hopefully if I get an offer from Edinburgh I'd switch to Russian and Spanish, same course as you
What's your first choice?

Re: The "waiting for news is driving me crazy" uberthread 2011-12Got an offer from Southampton Solent today but they put on my offer that I need to achieve the grade QQQ in my course. I don't think the grade QQQ even exists on BTEC so I've got to contact them now.

Re: The "waiting for news is driving me crazy" uberthread 2011-12Happy Valentine's, folks!
I hope yours are filled with more prosperity than mine. (I got "friendzoned" by my crush)
My wait for offers is over, and I kind of miss it. There isn't this exciting feeling seeing that you've got a (1) on the email icon anymore. Good luck with getting offers for those who haven't, and for the others: choose your firm and insurance wisely.Last edited by stifa; 14-02-2012 at 17:28. -

Re: The "waiting for news is driving me crazy" uberthread 2011-12Bristol sent me an email about how they have great graduate prospects and I should choose them.
I do not yet have an offer.

Re: The "waiting for news is driving me crazy" uberthread 2011-12Conditional for my first choice. Need a B in AH Maths
Think I've finally decided on my order:
1. Actuarial Science(Heriot Watt) - conditional(B @ Advanced Maths)
2. Economics(Glasgow)
3. Economics(Edinburgh)
4. Economics(Heriot-Watt) - Unconditional
5. Statistics(Glasgow) - Unconditional
Although even after these months 2, 3 and 4 are interchangeable.
I will firm the Actuarial Course and will reject the Stats course.
Insurance will be an unconditional offer to study economics, haven't decided the institution. Obviously if I get a conditional or rejection from both Edinburgh and Glasgow I'll firm & insure at HW. -

Re: The "waiting for news is driving me crazy" uberthread 2011-12I'm waiting for Extra to open and it's driving me mad!
I got two conditionals and three auditions and then turned them all down to do midwifery, I've ended up with an illness that isn't going to go away any time soon so now I'm hoping somewhere will let me do English & Creative Writing/Journalism!
Sending you all loads of offer vibes!
