Lol and yes you're right. :smile:

Do we get a letter telling us if we got a place or not? or is it done through ucas track?


I don't know what happens pre-interviews, but for the post-interview round you get a letter before Christmas, and then Track updates some time in January. :smile:

The quote in your signature reminds me of philosophy class... *mutters something about Platonic Forms and walks away*

Anyone here making an insurance bet with a friend? I plan on making a $20 bet with a friend (who's applying to Cambridge) that I wouldn't get i and that he would. He in turn bets that I would get in and that he wouldn't. Therefore, if one of us gets in while the other doesn't, the person who got rejected gets compensation in the form of some cash while the person who was accepted doesn't really care about the 20 bucks since he gets to attend a top tier university. If we both get in or both get turned down, we break even.

I think this is a good way to cope with the emotional stress of rejection. Thoughts? :P

I don't know :tongue: My boyfriend and I are both applying and I don't know what's going to happen if one of us gets in and the other doesn't. I have a feeling we'd leave each other well alone for at least a month :lol:

Hmmm.
Chiaraaaaaa!
I get so excited whenever I'm online :P I think I really need to focus my procrastination time on our thread again :wink:
So, what have I missed this time?

Ah I remember that... how did they seduce TSR to show such information. I wanna know!


Original post by Reminisce
I just don't post much on TSR (well... I do post in the maths sections)... But I am on most of days to monitor briefly this thread. :smile:


Oh I see :smile: Silent observer then? The only other Maths applicant who posts regularly is anyone_can_fly :frown: we really need more people of our own kind... or should I say course.

According to some, to be romantic, according to others, to console ourselves for being rejected.
