I'm sure it was 2dp if the answer was not an integer?


I recall that too

How long were everyone's section on why they wanted to do the course? I'm really worried mine's too short. I only wrote a short paragraph in fear of making it too much like a UCAS statement

Mine was also really short (Like a couple sentences), as I didn't realise that was the part where I needed to show my enthusiasm. I expected there to be a later section to do this, when I submitted the form I realised that was that part. :frown:
Who got on? I got invited to do a weekend of "mechanics, quantum mechanics and diffraction physics" in September ..

I got a place too! Really looking forward to it :ahee:

Quantum mechanics may have to wait until after exams though.

Hello there! Was so happy when I got the email :colondollar:
I wish we had some sort of a stalking page but there are too few people on this thing I guess..
What are you doing for A level?

I got a place too! Can't wait! im doing Physics, Maths, Chemistry and Computing :smile: and apart from the Quantum Physics stuff in my second physics exam and just a bit of general interest reading ive done in the past I havent done any reading around for the SPC. Ill do that after AS exams :smile:

Sorry if I tagged any of you more than once. What's everyone doing with regards to the clash with the Oxford open days? Are you just going to visit the university on a separate occasion?

I'm just not gonna go to Oxford's open day, if I decide later on that I want to go look round I'll probably just email them and ask if I can come up and look some other time:smile: plus I went on the Oxford pathways physics study day so I've already seen some of the university:smile:

Yeah, having visited informally by myself - I think it's honestly just as insightful as visiting during an Open Day. Besides that, I think there's another open day in like September (???) (I may well be misinformed) - nope just checked Friday 18th September. Although granted, it is pretty late. :s-smilie: Check if you can get the 2016 prospectus online, if not I can bring it with me on the 28th :smile:
