Congratulations, thats amazing!!

SO much pressure lmao you applied so early... I applied this Monday to Imperial, UCL, Warwick, Manchester and Bath but I haven't received any offers yet. What are your predicted grades? Also, I'm surprised you haven't received an offer from Liverpool cause they've been giving offers out like crazy??

Hahah yeah, Cambridge early deadline obviously, but we get October holidays v early on so school finished on like the 8th and the school wanted them sent off before that, so yeah super early!

Thanks so much:smile: I'm Scottish so sitting Advanced Highers in Chem, Computing, English & Maths, predicted 4As - you?

Funny you mention Liverpool, I'm hefty stressed about it hahaha, got my Glasgow offer legit the day after my UCAS got sent, Edinburgh a week after that - that was ages ago, was thinking I'd be hearing from Liverpool soon (even for a rejection!) but nothing!

One of my friends got an interview from imperial - you heard anything?:tongue:

Ahhhh such a daunting time, I know someone who has gotten an interview from Imperial too but not for CS.

I took Biology, Chemistry, Physics and Maths last year for AS and I dropped physics (got 4As) and now I have an A*(maths)AA prediction.

Dw about Liverpool they'll accept ya in no time

Yeah it's so weird just not knowing! Yeah imperial friend isn't compsci either so dw:smile:
Has anyone applied to the University of Leeds? They're quite high up in the rankings both uni and for CompSci. Any opinions?
