As I've said before, I remember going on Tinychat and Skype with you two and ryanb, asking each other GCSE Science questions and stuff. :moon: Little did we know we'd be competition 2 years later. I should have sabotaged you while I had the chance. :colone:

Hey :smile:

Wouldn't want to ruin your stroll down memory lane but I've got a concern about my application:

I've sent my SAQ eleven days ago, I got the automated email that they received it and that they'll forward it to my college.
However, I haven't gotten anything from my college yet (St John's). I see that people are getting emails from their colleges, with forms or whatnot...

Nah don't worry about it. The forms aren't much at all, nothing to do with actual application so

Is mentioning a specific college bad in the additional PS?

With these forms it's possible you can just do it at interview I suppose

I'm guessing it will increase your chances with your chosen college, but reduce them if you're pooled. I wouldn't do it.

Did you write much for it? I can't really think of what to write.

I haven't started yet but I think I'll probably write a fair amount of the 1200 characters.
This was very much needed

Btw I've received forms (data protection, request for UMS breakdown, etc.) from queens' but it seems they haven't specified a deadline? Did I miss something :lol:

I haven't received anything from my college (Trinity Hall) either! Didn't know I should be expecting anything, but as the deadline for the SAQ hasn't even passed yet I'm not too worried :smile:

Great stuff! But what's the difference between "Stalking Page Google Document" and "Safer Stalking Page" and the stalking thread page??
