Subject: Anglo-Saxon Norse and Celtic
College: Lucy Cavendish
Outcome: Offer
Conditions: 80% on all work for the Level 2 Open University module I'm taking, A Level standard Latin by August 15th. (Holy wow.)
How did you hear: email, but the letter is in the post - I just asked them for an email as I'm going away.
How do you feel: ELATED. (And terrified of speed-learning Latin.)

Subject: Natural Sciences (Physical)
College: Clare
Outcome: rejection
How did you hear? (eg letter/phone/owl): e-mail, requested it myself though
How do you feel?: Not so bad, this made my life easier If I had gotten an offer, I would have to decide between going to Cambridge and paying the exorbitant UK tuition fees, and staying here in Belgium and studying almost for free (500 euros/year tuition and cheaper living costs as well). Still kind of disappointed though.

College: Queens
Outcome: Rejection
How did you hear? (eg letter/phone/owl): Letter
How do you feel?: Relieved that I'm not worrying about it anymore, and not as upset as i thought I would be. I guess I was expecting to be rejected anyway, and I have offers from other unis so its not the end of the world.

Subject: Mathematics
College: Trinity
Outcome: Offer (With Choral Scholarship)
Conditions: AA and SS in STEP II/III
How did you hear? (eg letter/phone/owl): Email, then letter for details
How do you feel? Incredibly happy... I had been worrying about it for a while! Obviously happy just to have an offer, but a little worried about that SS (especially as everyone else has 12 or 11 at worst!). Still, not going to get this opportunity and muck it up at the last hurdle!!!!

Outcome: Pooled
Conditions: ^
How did you hear? (eg letter/phone/owl): Letter
How do you feel? Imperial is my first so wasn't that fussed. Reckoned I'd get rejected so was happy initially. But realised very quickly that that it probably won't lead to much xD

How do you feel? pretty relaxed at the minute, but, upon reading 'we are delighted', I went into shock and - for a few seconds, at least - it was glorious ecstasy.
