Wow. That's impressive. What is the SAT out of anyway? I don't know if I've mentioned it, but I'm a mature student, so I took them back in '04, my senior year and they were completely different.

Nottingham is my top choice. I had decided against it for a bit, but I keep going back to it. It's the one I'm most anxious to hear back from and of course, the only one I haven't received a welcome email from.

Oh oh my bad I thought we could chance each other I assumed you were a senior too lol. It's out of 2400 now, 3 sections of 800.

You're so good at relieving my fears. Thanks! I just worry because I don't have any recent qualifications. I mean I went to college up until may, but I didn't have a degree. But I'm hoping they'll understand.

I have thoroughly stalked the threads to relieve my fears. lol.
Kent sent me my acknowledgement email this morning. I hope this means an offer will come soon.

Posted from TSR Mobile

I did that last night. I re-read that American applicant thread from a few years back. I just wish Nottingham would acknowledge me.


Posted from TSR Mobile

I have read every post in that thread.

Posted from TSR Mobile

I think I have as well. I only got about thirty pages in last night. Hmmm. I'm going to have to keep reading.


Posted from TSR Mobile

That thread made me feel so inadequate in my Uni choices. I kept feeling like I should apply for more top 20 Unis but most of them don't have a Theatre department or it is only Theatre theory modules for the combined course.

You have to do what's right for you. And if you noticed, almost all of them applied to Edinburgh or St. Andrews. I don't want to go the same places as every other American.


Posted from TSR Mobile

Neither do I. Apparently us Americans really like Edinburgh, St. Andrews, UCL, Oxbridge and LSE. If not those KCL and QMUL because they are in London. Although QMUL is #2 for drama but I'd have to do an in person audition/interview and I can't afford the flight for a maybe.

Posted from TSR Mobile

I looked into UCL, but I didn't like the ancient history program. I loved it at KCL, but I don't really want to be in London. That would mean I'd have to take more loans than I would elsewhere.


Posted from TSR Mobile

I still have my 5th choice open. So if I get an unconditional for Kent. I am thinking about applying to Warwick or UEA just because.

Posted from TSR Mobile

Do Warwick! Lol. It looks amazing. The only thing that I don't like is that it's a bit isolated from everything else. But it sounds like there's so much to do. I've noticed people have already been hearing from Warwick too.


Posted from TSR Mobile

We'll see lol. Warwick has a 33% acceptance rate for Drama and English. The competition is steep.
