The Oxford TSA thread - 2016 applicants - 4th November 2015

Is anyone waiting for PPE at Balliol?

Got an interview for St Peters PPE 6th--> 9th. Thought the TSA was not to par but apparently not !

Yeh me! So nervous now, what grades did you apply with?

GCSE's: 1A*, 8A's, 2B's (poor I know)
AS Levels: AAAA
Predicted: A*A*A
TSA: Actually went ok, was pleasantly surprised with it if I'm honest

Yourself?

I wouldn't worry about GCSEs with those A Level grades and if the TSA went well!
GCSEs: 10 A*s, 1 A
AS Levels: AAAA
A2: already have an A in maths, predicted A*A*A in the others
TSA: really not great, I was so pushed for time, I'm really not convinced I will have done well enough in it for an interview

I always feel so embarrassed by my GCSE's even though they were the best in my year haha! Hope the interviews/rejections come around tomorrow, the wait is killing me!

Oh no need to worry then, Oxford will be able to see how well you performed compared to your school and you'll look just as good with your results as others with better from high performing schools. But I know, every time my phone lights up I get nervous!

I'm going stir crazy >.>

I've got 2A*s 5As and 4Bs and I like you was one of the best in my year so I'm hoping that contextual information is my saving grace!

lol me too Hopefully today is the day for the last PPE interviews!

I bet! Which course/college did you apply for may I ask?

PPE at Exeter College

some colleges says on their website when they release interview invites.. keble has updated it everyday for other subjects and not yet for ppe.. so if they send them today then we can expect them in the post tomorrow/saturday!
