My personal statement wasn't great but I've already got 4 offers and 1 uni said they wouldn't consider applications until January.

I think they more care about grades for Chemical engineering and my predicted grades are pretty similar.

Your AS results are perfect and your A2 predictions are great too.
I bet your personal statement is better than you think too!
You're just getting yourself worked up over nothing:tongue:
What makes you think your PS isn't good?


I did it really last minute and I can't get any teachers to check it. :frown:

Omg well done! I've got my interview there on the 9th, what was yours like if you don't mind me asking? Were there any technical questions?

I didn't get an interview, I just got a straight offer :redface:

That's what it said on UCAS at least, not sure if they have their own portal to see if/when interviews are taking place because they never sent me any links or things like that with their acknowledgement email.

Hi,

Sorry for the delay you are having - I can remember the agonizing wait from when I was in your position!

We will make decisions as quickly as possible, however it may take some time for decisions to be made, but this will be by the end of March. As you can see on our website, all applications received before the January 15th UCAS deadline are given equal consideration, so do not worry if you haven't received a decision yet.

In the meantime please feel free to ask any questions you may have.

Anyone heard from Lancaster?

I've got two other offers already (Nottingham/Hull) but I *really* want to go to Lancaster. The wait is awful.

Why choose Lancaster over Nottingham? Thought Lancaster wasn't accredited by iChemE, whereas Nottingham is
