Re: Oxford 2012 Freshers Chat ThreadDude even if they're not perfect you're probs going to Oxford anyway D: x(Original post by medbh4805)

thinking rationally about it I'm pretty sure I'm going to get A*A*AAAb (though maybe won't get one of those A*s), which will get me in. It's just the inevitable disappointment that they aren't perfect results
ffs

Re: Oxford 2012 Freshers Chat ThreadDepends on the College.. My college has just sent out all pre-departure information including University and College contracts to sign and return! It is starting to feel real!!!(Original post by -chiquitita)
Hey. Haha. Anyone know when we hear about accommodation, is it after the A level results come out? I really want to know what we need to take with us.

Hi! Whereabouts in America are you from? Also, which college are you studying in?
I'm reading Classics at Somerville. You? -
Re: Oxford 2012 Freshers Chat Thread
Ah I wish all the best to those waiting for results. I vaguely remember driving home from my holiday to pick mine up, because for some reason I couldn't get them on the college internet.
Now I think on it, I believe I had chocolate cake on the way back. Whatever happens eat some cake :-) -

I haven't heard anything about accomadation either, so I assume it'll be after Thursday. Though I haven't actually heard anything at all from Oxford since getting my results. -

My letter from Worcester said that accommodation would be allocated and details sent after results day.
(It being a little different for me I didn't read that section until just now). -

Haha pretty much everything I've heard about New Jersey is negative
I'm doing Economics & Management at Teddy Hall
The Jersey Shore and everything else you've ever seen or heard is an incredibly inaccurate reflection of what New Jersey is actually like. The reality is much less horrific, trust me. 
Where are you from?
Also, there's a facebook group for American freshers; you should join! -

Hmm I couldn't find the group. Do you have a link? -
Re: Oxford 2012 Freshers Chat ThreadAhh, the lesser Washington, with the better one, of course, being on the East coast.(Original post by Dnibara)
