I can't believe you got rejected with that - absolutely brill stats. I'm sure you'll get an offer somewhere else. did you get band 1 SJT?

Everyone seems to be saying the feedback is very quick - the next day it think

It really annoys me how edinburgh do it - it just feels so so unfair rejecting a few people every day. They should hand out all offers/rejections on the same day
Absolutely pranging it atm. seeing people with such similar scores drop every day.
