I'm so new to this whole student room thing!

But I got an offer at Keble to study modern languages! Anyone else from Keble?

Would be great to meet people!! :smile:

although by the time you get here, I'll be a second year (prelims permitting) :colondollar:

Happens sometimes. A girl who got interviewed at my college the year after I got in was interviewed by four different colleges altogether... I believe they do this to some people in order to check that interviewers at different colleges are reaching similar conclusions about candidates (i.e. to make the interview process fair).

Hey, I see your offer's from Balliol from your previous post, I'm (hopefully) Balliol bound for History :smile:

Excellent, I've now found someone I can shout at over the wall. :tongue:

AAh, wow, well done! Are you excited? It'd be lovely to get to know some other people going before going! :smile:

Thanks, you too :smile:

I am excited, yes, but my work ethic is pretty much non-existent right now (and that's worryingly not an exaggeration...) so I really need to focus more on studying to make sure I even meet my offer :')

Yeah, it would be nice to meet other people on the course before going, I met a guy at interviews who also got an offer for Law with French Law at my college, I've got him on facebook now too though we don't talk (yet...xD). He was nice though :smile:

My name is Maddy by the way!

This may be a bit lazy of me and I apologize (I really dont want to look through all 40 pages) but how many people on here have offers for Magdalen - more specifically Law at Magdalen.

Does anyone (medics if possible) know if there was anything else we had to send to Oxford to accept our offers (apart from firming on UCAS) as I'm a little paranoid that I've forgotten something :tongue:

Last year they wanted an email if you weren't planning on accepting the offer, but otherwise there wasn't anything to send before the summer (after A-level results).

See my message on your profile :smile:

Congratulations!

Well done on all your offers!
Not sure whether this is the right place to ask, but I'm leaning towards dropping my EPQ (screwed up over deadlines, forgot about doing the log) and I'm not sure how much Oxford would mind. I have an offer for English so I've emailed the English Faculty to find out, but have had no reply as of yet. Does anyone know whether it would be acceptable to drop the EPQ, or who I should contact to find out? Thanks for any help.

Definitely wait to hear back from them before making a decision. If it's on your UCAS and you decide to drop it, they're within their rights to withdraw their offer. However they might say it's okay, so wait to hear what they say :yes:
