Bad luck. Nottingham's a great uni though.

I'm definitely not going there... Might take a gap year though I doubt that I'll reapply to Cam. I really want a Durham offer but I doubt I'll get one. Sad times!

I am petrified. I only find out either tomorrow or Monday and all my friends at school are either pooled/rejected. I am...screwed and yet I can't stop the hope for a moment either....Damn!!!!

ahh are you a choral person? That's understandable then - if you want music and academics and lovelyness I guess Cambridge is the place to be! good luck!

thanks :smile: good luck to you too! and you're safe-ish in the knowledge that you're pretty much certainly going somewhere else amazing if you don't get in, which is a bonus :yep: I should have thought more carefully about my choices!

Rejected. Bit pissed I wasn't pooled cos I enjoyed the interviews so much - I guess I'm just hurt that they obviously didn't enjoy chatting to me enough to at least pool me. :frown::frown::frown:

aaloo, I'm quite worried now, as I enjoyed my interviews (especially the first) immensely. I haven't received my letter yet so I'm on tenterhooks. Can I ask which college you applied to?

ah don't worry mate. it's the way of the world...i'm going to try to resign myself to the knowledge that there isn't any point in worrying...this will probably be futile!

Because aaloo enjoyed their interviews and thought they went very well, yet they've been rejected without even being put in the pool. I'm worried the same will happen to me.

Bad luck. I'm sure they did enjoy talking to you - you just had strong competition. Good luck with your other applications.


Thanks. When I stop feeling like a kicked puppy, I'll fall in love with Durham again, I'm sure. *sigh*

Everyone at Emmanuel applying for English enjoyed their interviews. It was just that kind of atmosphere. Just wait.

Durham is lovely. I need to learn to love it more and be more grateful for what i have rather than what i don't...
Reply 595
Yup, me too. I agree. But I don't actually have an offer from Durham either so.. best just suspend hope for the time being.
I think I want to reapply next year. But first i shall get my school to do this
