How common is it to get all 5 offers from your choices?

Original post by Lucy96

It's common when you apply for a course fairly unpopular like mine :colondollar:

Anthropology? How many applicants does it usually have per year? :biggrin:

I think my lowest is European Politics at KCL, where there is around 3 applicants per place.

Yup! I genuinely have no idea, I've based it off the fact that entry requirements tend to be low (Durham asking for ABB for example) and I don't know ANYONE in person who's applied for it :tongue:

Mine's less popular as I've gone for biological/evolutionary, social anthropology is much more popular :tongue:

Aww wow!

Fairly unlikely if you apply to 5 top universities (Like my friend applied for LSE, Imperial, Oxford, Durham and St Andrews) maths/maths and econ

pretty risky if he flunks his A2s isn't it?

Probably is a tad low in competitiveness then, although, by looking at Duram's course, it seems really interesting! :h:

I would eat supidly-hot chillies for an ABB offer! My top two, UCL and KCL, have both offered AAA. :mad:

By 'wow' I hope you mean 'the Hell you must be in! I feel sorry for thee' :wink:

I need to ace Politics, English Language and History, not so happy at the moment with the latter.

How about you?

I can't imagine the pressure! It'll be worth it though!

Nice subjects :biggrin:

one of my friends got a conditional for all five (and she was applying for medicine!!!) universities, and she hadn't even done her AS yet.

She got a full set of medicine offers without any AS-levels? How did that happen? :curious:

I got all 5, Oxford, UCL, Bath, Southampton and Cardiff.

To be honest though I think if you get 5 offers then you should have aimed higher, you don't need 5 offers as you'll only end up going to one of them.

Did you accept Cardiff? :tongue:

I'm having major issues with exam structure which is eating my ability to attain decent marks. Will be working on it.

Brilliant subjects yourself!

I bid the best of luck to you; you'll do well I'm certain!

Well, if you've got fantastic grades, then I think it shouldn't be a problem. I'm not sure if you mean a full offer or a conditional offer, but one of my friends got a conditional for all five (and she was applying for medicine!!!) universities, and she hadn't even done her AS yet.

Unless you mean A2...I'm afraid to say this is bs
