    Cambridge, Durham, Edinburgh and Bristol. I think I'm going to firm Cambridge and insure either UCL or Durham but it's just trying to make decisions!

    How about you?
    Birmingham, Nottingham, Exeter and haven't heard from Edinburgh- UCL is my first choice.

    Have any of you gotten an email from them yet? I haven't heard anything from them since my interview, apart from the UCAS update.

    I'm sure they won't reject you! They probably just need to confirm that you'd be willing to take up a language at UCL before they give you your offer If they were just going to reject you, I'm pretty sure they wouldn't even bother asking about languages.
    Thanks so much for you reply ^_^
    I did get an offer eventually (:

    Thank you ^^ I don't mind, it was ABB, which is well below what I'm predicted. If I didn't go to my exams I'd get Cs in all my A Levels, so I'm quite confident I'll get the grades :P

    I'm also super excited!! And as my offer was unconditional (I'm a mature student, done a few Open University modules over the last few years which was enough for them), I'm just sitting back and waiting for it to start... counting down the weeks until I finish work! Seriously, cannot wait til September! Still can't believe I got in, never thought I would.

    It's killing me that I have to wait 4 months! I actually spend more time thinking about that than I do thinking about schoolwork, I think. Which is really bad, because my exams start in less than 2 weeks.

    I know EXACTLY what you mean. I've started planning all the things I'll need and how I'll decorate my room and stuff... It's insane :L And my first exam is in exactly one week!
