    So...having not heard anything from 3 of 4 unis do you think it is safe to assume that my application has made it past the first cull and is being held in the 'peruse further if our first choices are fruitless' pile!?

    It seems time is running out... Tick, tock, tick, tock

    I doubt it's anything like that, where did you apply?

    BSMS (which gave out a heap of rejections and interviews last week)
    Bristol (which gave out some rejections about a week to ten days ago)
    UCL (which have interviewed priority candidates over the past few weeks)
    Soton: interview on 8th Feb

    Don't really know enough about these unis to give a me a great idea about their interview process but if you haven't been rejected from any of them yet, it means your application certainly isn't weak. It could also be that they haven't actually looked at your application in any detail yet due to the high applicant numbers and you just need to wait a little longer for your interview.

    It's too early to give up hope yet.

    According to the stalking page, only 1 int'l rejection pre interview so far, the unis seem to be very slow with offers/rejections this year. Or it may just be that the lack of exam stress is playing havoc with my internal clock. Either way the waiting game is horrible.

    I'm absolutely ****ting it (not literally though, I'm not upto that stage yet...).

    I know the content but knowing AQA being the devils they are the mark scheme will be extremely awkward.

    Ditto. That is hoping my internet holds up. I have a very very slow internet speed, I think it's less than 1Mbps having 2 sisters who also use the internet pretty heavily doesn't help and I can't watch it on T.V because I still have the old t.v with the analogue signal.
