Re: Postgraduate Decisions Thread 2012What are you going to do during this year if not a PhD? :P
It really takes a a lot of time to get a response...

Wondering whether it'd be wise to try again next year.. or whether I'd be rejected by all the same places! I keep narrowly missing out on places.. so competitive this year.

I did apply to Westminster for the same program. I would hope to hear something this week since I applied on March 20. Of course the holiday has an effect I'm sure on their response time. -

I've heard back from my top UK universities, and unfortunately I was like, next in line for a place at many of them, but didn't get in. I'm still waiting to hear from 2 or 3 UK unis though, and EPFL.
Hows it going for you? -

Re: Postgraduate Decisions Thread 2012I received an e-mail saying I had a conditional offer from Imperial College, but I still do not know the conditions.
The new key event is that I might get a job at the Swiss National Bank, my first interviewer will be the head of Economic Analysis of the SNB :-/.
