Ah, I was going to apply for that but it didn't seem continental enough for my liking. If you can't tell btw I'm very indecisive about what I want to do at Uni and indeed with my life. I am thinking of doing a joint honours philosophy and english course but Oxbridge don't offer that so...

Well, it's definitely interesting, though the workload could be considered quite overwhelming. The exams were pretty great for it, hoping for 100% UMS In psych.

I've decided on another college too now, and I'm not sure if their ATs check TSR
So lots of posting probably won't help

That 17.7% success rate for maths does not fill me with hope

Never was an emoji more aptly used. Well done.

I guess it's the same principle as pre- A-level applicants. Only the "best" are guaranteed an interview. i.e. if you have A*A*A you "probably" will be interviewed. But A*A*A* you definitely will be interviewed.
Most offer holders do exceed the minimum offer.

Depends on the course. I'm hoping that the humanities admission tutors will be slightly more lenient with my grades than for you STEM types

That is due to people not making offers (like me) offer rate is much much higher.

I love that emoticon
I actually thought about applying to Sorbonne but my French is awful and it'd be a tad too new for me if I went there

Clare? Good luck! Clare have an insanely high applicant rate.
