Totally valid thing to feel and understand the frustration in waiting. I am praying for you and hope you get into where you want to go. I would also note that your application is probably slightly stronger since you already have your grades, concrete grades are preferable to predicteds even if they don't say it.

I really hope this is true 😩 I’m applying as a gap year student too 3 A* and A, do they look at them higher?

Fundamentally/officially there is no stated difference, but in reality, yes, your 3 A stars and one A achieved is going to be preferred to predicteds if all else is equal, because you already achieved it vs another person who still has to sit a very stressful exam series to get them... in other words, your capacity to meet the requirements is already proven whilst others aren't... additionally, predicted grades can be very inflated and unis know that. Once again, like others worrying here, your set of grades is excellent so I would be surprised if you were rejected from the unis you are applying to, those should get you into any unis other than Oxbridge without difficulty (if you are applying to Oxbridge, you'll need strong extracurriculars as you probably know well!).

Yeah my application is a weird one, I'm an extremely contextual student, I didn't even sit my GCSEs due to illness, but because it was the year they were going off of teachers assesment I was given 877666552, and my A levels are A*AB but some of them were self taught and others I had school lessons. 27 on lnat as contextual and pretty confident in the essay. PS is banging, and so is my reference, the first sentence literally says he finished 2nd in his cohort of like 200.

But better applicants than me have got rejected, I'm just vibing now lol, I'll see the decision when I see the decision. I've been rejected from kings, got shortlisted for camb FY and have interviews next month, and am waiting on UCL, and LSE. And SOAS which I don't care about. I hope our application gets us to UCL and LSE!

nope! i applied pre-oxbridge deadline and haven’t heard anything, there’s still quite a lot of people waiting so it’s not unusual, especially since lse are notorious for being late. good luck!!

nope! home, non-contextual. i’ll put my stats since it may be helpful for you and others: predicted a*a*a with an a* achieved in epq, all nines in gcse (10 in total)! i did the lnat for my other universities but obviously that’s not considered for warwick. good luck to you :smile:

yeah I'm only waiting on lse now ☹️ I'm so scared that accommodation at other unis will fill up and if I get rejected from lse really late I won't find any at the other unis
