My friend hasn't heard either. I really think I haven't gotten in :frown: what did you get last year?

It's annoying how they've not even told us that we've been rejected :s-smilie: I imagine we'll get a letter at some point in the next few days. What did you apply for? :smile:

I got 8 As at Nat 5 last year and met most of the criteria (EMA, free school meals, first generation uni) apart from the ACORN thing cause apparently my area is quite rich. I'm not sure how that was calculated though, seeing as I'm from a pretty deprived area near Stirling haha...

I applied for Modern Languages with International Relations and I know!

I got 4 A's 2 B's and 2 C's (both two marks off B's) last year but I'm predicted 5 A's this year and I'm doing 4 AH's next year. I have a lot of extra curriculars as well. I didn't meet much of the criteria and I'm not really expecting a place, especially as I live near the uni, but I at least want to hear back! It's ridiculous because I've got a singing exam I need to apply for pretty much now that I can only do if I don't get in.

Well done!! :biggrin: And wow 4 AH's :eek: What subjects did you pick? I'll probably do 3 AH's next year.

Ah that's annoying, have you tried emailing them?

I'm not completely sure but either AH Maths, Physics & Chemistry or AH Maths, Biology & Chemistry. I took Nat 5 Music and loved it, so I might also do Higher Music next year. Did you do the new higher for music or the old one? :smile:
