Official Warwick Applicants Thread 2011

Now I think about it, what were you doing on this thread? You're at uni already.

I'm not African either.

Yeah but that is a thread full of people whom you talk to on a regular basisi on here. Do you crawl random threads?

I STILL haven't heard back?! Maybe they're just ignoring me :P
Where are you gonna go now then?

Meh, yes, I do. But thank you for all of that. I guess I'll just reapply a stronger candidate next year...where are you going now?

I doubt Bristol will take me.

Sorry to hear about this, I really feel for you Competition for uni places is so crazy this year and it's really crappy that working your butt off and getting amazing grades isn't enough to get you offers. God knows what unis like Warwick are looking for in applicants - it doesn't make any sense that someone like me would get an interview while you get rejected because your grades are so much better than mine! Good luck with Bristol, I hope they give you an offer!

Hello
I remember talking to you quite some time ago. Have you applied to Warwick? Any decisions yet?

Hello

I'm actually a PhD student, so have done my undergrad... I probably shouldn't be hanging around here but I can't help it - I enjoyed Warwick so much I want to tell everyone about it, and my girlfriend works there so I get to know some of what goes on behind the scenes.

That's some fine offers you have - congratulations

I intend to do a gap year and have a job lined up that will earn me between £8000 and £9000. Plus jobs both this summer and next should leave me in a good financial position. I can also try to expand my literary CV and write a better PS. Hopefully all of that, combined with 2 A*'s and an A, should get me into somewhere good next year.

Where is your friend now?

Im wondering the same thing! I got an offer in november for 38 IB points
They don't have many stats on the website... is Warwick your top choice?

Oh thank you!
So where are you studying at the moment? Hm, I wonder where we spoke to each other. I might confuse you with someone else. Where are you from?

Birmingham, in answer to both questions. PhD funding's a beast and I couldn't get any, so I'm PhD-ing part time.

got an offer last week! my conditions are 36 IB points with a 4 in English and 6 in Math SL...even though my predicted is 43. pretty happy with it!

Im applying for history and politics too! Cant believe we havent heard yet!

I am so glad someone else hasn't heard! It's seemingly either a rejection or nothing so I guess no news is good news?
