Interesting, I was there too. Don't worry. Guests dress "smart" according to the rules of the college. Just don't wear a hoodie and you'll be fine.

I ended up wearing a blouse and a black skirt. What did you think of the cream with dessert? I thought it tasted rather strange.

I was going to ask someone to reserve some dessert, as last week by 1pm there was none left, but then I found out it was parents thing too :frown:

Oooh, two of my friends at Merton are helping with interviews. Have any of you guys been shown around by Rob (studies Music) or Jenny (English)?

I love Merton - so much I've applied there for postgrad. :wink:

Yep, got an email on Friday for French and Linguistics 08 :biggrin:

So happy. I applied to Worcester originally and had a second interview at Merton which was an overall far more pleasant experience. I also much preferred the college so I was really glad when the offer came through from Merton instead of Worcester (no offence intented to Worcester, it's still a great college). Just gotta knuckle down and get the grades now!

Hi Everyone,

I'm hoping to read Medicine at Merton in 2008 (still in a state of absolute shock and sheer excitement!!! :biggrin:

), provided that I really knuckle down and meet my offer. Are there any other potential Mertonian medics on this thread?

Hope that everyone has a great new year!

I don't know how many of the offer-holders have joined the facebook group, but just in case some of you haven't, I thought I'd post the link:

anyway hope that everyone's okay, school and exam preparation going well - this thread's been silent for a while!
