Trust me when i got there with my friend a long queue stretching outside and thats us early we got in after 20 minutes after which the line got even longer :/...... Trust me even i didnt and those ppl at my old skl did soo much worse than me

Seriously?! Man! I wanted to go in on results day too. If I managed to get lot's of A*'s and A's in my GCSE's, and I wanted to study Science...what do you think my chances are? =/ Thanks :smile:

Race you there :P lol. Same here, but it may change when the time comes closer to enrollment day. Do people on the waiting list go in for the tater day?

Ahaha...I'll use my brother's toy racing car, then I'll be guaranteed to get there first :tongue:

I hope loads of people reject their places, who are doing the Sciences(maybe I'm just being bitter! :tongue:

) I don't think we can go in on the taster day, since it's only for the ones who actually got an offer :frown:

Where are you going to go, if you don't get a place at Woodhouse? :smile:

Yeah, but for a private school guy, im pretty safe lol, really? yeah a few of my mentors in year 13 chose imperial over cambridge? facinates me.

Yeah, i want to do classics at Warwick, or KCL and then go onto investment banking.

Do many people go onto decently good universities?

Yeah... a few people pick imperial due to how good it is at science..but people dont feel alienated by the rich kids..

It depends what you class as decent good university, like last year 32 people went to queen mary which can be considered inbetween top and above average unis (aab+).. Another choice is brunel which is mediorce which people put as insurance (bbc)...
Quite a lot getting into UCl another uni is kent which people get into which is ABB

Pretty good chance to be honest.......... it happened to my friend he got like 4 or 6 A*'s then more A'S and a B i think..... And he did maths, physics, economics and art and I made him come with me as he was disillusioned and you know what? he got in :smile:

So can you, but your year probably has more competition...but you can try as i know in my year my friend was the only one going in for the waiting list, plus theres even a new application queue if you got rejected first time :smile:

so all possible

Thank you! That gives me some hope :biggrin:

Now, I'm going to try to get a majority of A*'s and a few A's, maybe I can get in :smile:

LOL but to do that, I need to get off TSR ahaha :tongue:

When I go in for the waiting list, will they still remember my interview and use that? I did terrible in my interview :s-smilie:

Also, if I go in for the waiting list, can I also join the new application queue? Thank you :smile:

Nope sorry, if wanna do a new application, you got to withdraw from the waiting list... but your chances are better with the waiting list.., and your interview isnt taken into consideration as a person will judge you mainly on your results ... so you got a chance :smile:

Oh OK, thank you :smile:

I hope I get in, I really wanted to go there. If not, then I have Grey Coat's which is also good(hopefully!) :smile:

Are there many people in your year who got in after being put on the waiting list? Sorry for all the questions...I'm just a confused person LOL!

It's cool, I wasn't really fussed about it but it's still pretty annoying :tongue:

cos I'm sure everything went pretty well for me, oh well o.0 I don't think I'll send the form for the waiting list anyway :\ Aawww thanks, I've got myself doubting if St Doms is the right choice, but I'm hoping it is :wink:

Are you on the waiting list right? xxx

I know, right? Your grades are exceptionally high, so I'm really confused why they put you on the waiting list! The thing that confuses me the most is that, Henrietta Barnett(the college that is considered top in this country) accepted you, and Woodhouse didn't, and they're not the top college?! :confused:

Awwh, how comes you're not sure about St Dominic's anymore? Where are you thinking to go now? I suggest you accept all of your offers, and then visit all of the taster days to see which one appeals to you the most :smile:

Yep, I'm on the waiting list too :smile:

Loads of people got put on it this year...makes me wonder...how long is this waiting list?! Ahaha :tongue:

Hhhmmm I guess not that many people apply HBS o.0 Hehe well a lot of people are telling me how good Henrietta Barnett sounds and that it's impressive and whatnot and it's foolish to turn down. I don't know, I'm not really a person to care for names but it's still affecting me o.0 I'm sure I'll stick with Doms it's just second thoughts going around my head about it. I just don't want any regrets! It's cool though, I'm accepting them :smile:

And will probably do what you're advising and LOL yeah, but I'm sure some of the people won't send the form, like myself :tongue:

Don't worry too much about Woodhouse, just focus on getting the A*s and then you can do a lot with them :smile:

Hopefully you get a place, I know how much you want to go there! xxxxx

My friends went to greycoats long time ago .........
I dont mind the questions im bored at the moment just revising in school library :frown:

Well i just found out another one of my close friends was on waiting list, but they changed it to conditional... because when people come on induction day the classes are packed, but people reject there offer and also in the first few weeks people decide to drop out as they can't hack the new lifestyle as its like starting fresh.. workloads different..
Takes a while to fit in, but those that get i through waiting list are pretty smart anyway... you probably didnt get in due a shortage of space in your courses, but you shouldnt worry just run once u get ur results forget everything :smile:

Read the part about unconditional offers

It doesn't matter which university, the terms for an unconditional offer are the same.

LOL, the reason I sent you that link is because it says unconditional offers are given if the grades are already met, not if the previous exam results indicate that the grades will be met,. Does that make sense? :colondollar:
