But getting an offer from Southampton's like getting your personal statement being placed in the top 10-15 out of 100

exactly why i applied there, then changed to leicester out of blind panic

But isn't getting into medicine being placed in the top 10-15 out of 100 anyways?

But they don't interview, so it's solely dependent on your PS

Nice!

No interviews for me yet

I'm sure you'll get some, Keele is being quite slow with giving out interviews this year apparently, and Southampton don't interview anyway.

Which is sort of calming and unnerving at the same time

Oh yeah - I'm not soooooo good at those

So I probably would have failed after interview anyway (If I had been offered an interview)

Had my interview at Nottingham today.

Really hope they liked me

Try doing a 45 mark English Literature essay in German, with quotes, without the book in front of you, in 270 words. FML

Never mind, just think of things to improve on and work on them for your January interviews

German IS fun (at least the lessons with one of my teachers are )

She plans to do a 5 minute starter, but we end up spending the whole 1hr 10 mins on it

And even funnier - she's a vocab/grammar (nazi*), so when she gets pissed, if she thinks of a good word, she tells us to note it down somewhere

* may be not so appropriate a word (even funnier, she's Austrian )
