Rejected for politics with A* A* A* A predictions, straight As at AS Level all but one over 90% (the one was at 89%) and 10 A*s at GCSE.

Is it because I'm from a state school? Who knows.

Pissed.


Good grief! They're mad!

I applied to Oxford, Durham, Warwick and York as well as Bristol :biggrin:
How did you find the interview at Oxford?

I had the first interviews of the day at both colleges. My first interview went abysmally! Not only were the interviewers cold and rude, I found the whole process very unnerving, I certainly didn't enjoy it! I thought the questions were very hard and was given no encouragement only cold looks. There was no talk of my reading, interests or anything. I certainly performed very badly.

My second interview went much better, I certainly wasn't nervous and I found the interviewers much more encouraging and I feel I performed a lot better.

Don't think I got in! How did yours go?

Well I think my first one went quite well, I came out feeling really positive, but then you can never really tell! My second one was awful, everything I said was torn apart! I know what you mean about being unnerving, I got out my second one and I felt so drained. I'm not expecting an offer either tbh, though you never know, we could be surprised!
Just got my offer for MChem through UCAS - AAB including Chemistry and Maths. It was my last offer from my non-Cambridge unis . . .
If anyone could give me any feedback I would really appreciate it.
I have an offer from manchester for History but got rejected from UCL yesterday. I havent heard anything from Bristol and wonder if this means I am going to be rejected in January :frown:
My predicted grades for A2 are A A A and my gcses werent amazing :frown:
I'm really worried I'm going to get no more offers :frown:

With a subject as popular as History, I would expect Bristol are holding back almost all applications until after the deadline, so not hearing from them isn't much of an indication either way. Sorry to hear about your rejection, but the best thing you can do now is forget about UCAS (most Universities are on their Christmas breaks now, so you're probably not going to hear much else until January anyway) and enjoy Christmas and New Year! :smile:

Hey! I've applied for Biology :biggrin:
I have offers from York and Warwick. Nothing from Bristol or Durham and waiting on Oxford reply to my interview (expecting the rejection!)

How're your UCAS's going?
What have you applied for and where?

Oh, I'm psychology :smile:
I haven't had any offers yet :s-smilie: Starting to worry. But on the positive side-no rejections either!!
I though you knew about Oxford already? Throught Oxford make really quick decisions? I'm expecting a rejection for Cambridge too! But I won't know for certain 'til January.
