I thought we probably should have a nice organised thread where people can keep each other up to date with where they are applying / where they've applied /whether they got offers / rejections - whatever!
It's good to talk!
I don't know how stickies work, but if this picks up maybe it should get the treatment?
Maybe I could even whip up a huge list of who is applying to which university? Who knows!
Ooh, I was wondering when one of these would turn up! I'm applying to:
Oxford (Teddy Hall), Warwick (for English & Creative Writing), UCL, Goldsmiths (for English w/Creative Writing) and Sheffield. Three really competitive, and then a couple that are slightly more insurance-y. I'll see how it goes!
They are really competitive, I know ... But I feel I should have a go (you only live once!)
That's the spirit! My choices (roughly in order of preference):
Oxford (Mansfield) UCL KCL St Andrews Leeds
I'd be extremely pleased with an offer from any of them, which I think is the test of a good five choices. Should things turn out badly, I'll just have to take a 'gap year of necessity'.
I too have been waiting for this to appear, my choices are Brighton, Chichester, Portsmouth, SMUC Twickenham and Winchester. Know these aren't that special, but I'd rather be safe and near home than risky and miles away!

Sending off UCAS in the next week or so.
If you want to know anything about Chichester, just pm me
UCL - English KCL - English Language & Literature (they dont offer straight lit) Bristol - English Exeter - English Queen Mary - English
I THINK...i'm also looking at Birmingham and Warwick, but it seems EVERYONE wants to go there. Although I got 4As at AS-level, nearly everywhere seems so competitive
Oxford (Magdalen) - English Language and Literature UCL - English Literature Warwick - English Literature (though I am contemplating Eng Lit. and Theatre Arts) York - English Literature Leeds - English Literature
For some reason, I get this weird feeling in my stomach whenever I look at my choices. =/
