Oh ok! I applied to Trev and got into Trev. So i dont really know. they say that it can change but in reality i am not sure if it does!! do you think you will head for durham next year??

Yeah I'm pretty sure it will be my first choice. I suppose it depends if I get the grades haha, but I'm pretty certain I can do that :smile:

Someone I know was rejected for History yesterday, I assume there has been others as well.

What were your subjects/GCSE's?

See this is why I'm in shock! My application was very weak apart from, I think, my personal statement. I got AABBCCCCCE at GCSE and BBB at AS, with those predictions. So very shocked, and not very academic A level subjects - Psychology, law and health and social care.

Nope, sorry. Although I would guess its fairly popular. Tbh I think any course at a Uni like Durham is going to be fairly competitive. Unless it's based in Queens Campus.

LAWL bite me. :mfing:

Don't feel less less proud, there are plently of subjects at main campus less competitive and respected than your course.... like theology, music, sociology and sport. Gawd I sound like a hatfielder, passing judgement left right and centre. :rolleyes:

And CONGRATS on the offer, Snow or Stevo college?

Any more Maths offers?

At my school, of the 7 people who applied for maths, 5 applied to Durham and all have heard back in the last week or so. 4 were made offers and 1 was unsuccessful. So they're definitely processing applications atm.

How come you don't think you'll make the grades! You've applied to Cambridge haven't you?

Ps Hope your interview went well :smile:

Yeahh, but Advanced Highers are such a massive jump up, I'm struggling a bit, especially with French. And because you can get to uni in Scotland purely on Highers, teachers don't put that much effort into teaching AHs :/ Also, general 6th year apathy and lack of effort, especially knowing I already have a uni place anyway.

Thanks :smile:

it went ok, I guess, but I doubt I've got a place out of it.
