Conditional Offers For 2015 HELP

I'd say you're likely to get a conditional, although it will probably be a tough one. It really all depends on the competition/demand though, but it's not a definite no so it doesn't hurt to submit an application! My boyfriend got AC for his S5 Highers, less than yours clearly, and was not offered a conditional to Aberdeen, but conditionals to elsewhere.

Do you mean tough as in the grades they would ask for? And do you think a good personal statement will give me a better chance of getting a conditional? Thanks

Yes, I meant the grades asked for. A good personal statement will definitely help, it can sometimes be the deciding factor when it comes down to two applicants with the same grades - it's important to speak about your PASSION for the subject - the roots of this and how it grew, and add in any relevant experiences. What you can also do is perhaps e-mail the admissions team there and ask them if there is a likelihood of a conditional offer, it's not guaranteed that you'll get a straight reply because it's so early and some universities do not like to do this, but it's worth a shot.

Okay, they've replied and they 'would expect to be able to make me a conditional offer'

Hey, guys, could you perhaps help me out?
I'm an EU citizen outside if the UK, but I really want to get into a Scottish university and I'm applying for Law and International Relations/Politics and only the following universities offer that: Aberdeen, Edinburgh, Dundee, Glasgow, Stirling, Strathclyde. I hear that Scottish universities are more prone to accepting fee-paying students, but since I am not, would that hinder my chances? I'm in the IB program, btw. Could you guys suggest which universities are the likeliest and the least likeliest to accept someone like me? My number one choices are Aberdeen and Edinburgh, and the rest I want to apply just to make sure I get in, so I also need to know which universities I'm pretty much guaranteed to get into. Thanks, guys, this website is really useful! ^^

Hey, I'm in the same situation. I live in Cambodia right now but originally from Germany. I applied to St Andrews, Edinburgh, Aberdeen, Strathclyde and Heriot Watt. I got a predicted of 39 but I haven't heard from any university and I applied beginning december so its been around two months. So I'm little more than slightly worried haha. All my international friends have gotten offers already. How are you standing with offers right now?

Hey!
Wow, 39 is amazing!
The thing is, I'm in the exact same situation; I applied 3 weeks ago and almost ALL of my friends keep getting offers and the ones I applied to are completely silent.
I applied to Edinburgh, Aberdeen and Kent.

Thank you!
Aw man, that sucks. Good to know I'm not the only one in this situation though... I hope you get some offers really soon! I have my mocks next week and i would love some motivation myself haha. Where do you go to school?

Hahaha, yeah, misery loves company
Oh, wow, good luck with those mocks! Mine are on the first week of March. I go to school in Lithuania. International school kid?

I´ve also applied to St Andrews, Edinburgh and Aberdeen. Have you heard back from any of them yet? I´m still waiting. Applied for Social Anthropology, how about you?

Btw: I´m also in the IB, and I´m predicted 38 (excluding core points).

No. I haven't at all, I read somewhere online that both St. Andrews and Edinburgh tend to give the offers last minute at around 31st of March... I hope they come earlier though! Are you an international or EU applicant?
