I feel like only person without an Exeter offer! :frown:

Should I be worried..?


Of course not! Everybody gets offers at different times, a few people in my school haven't heard anything from Exeter yet! :u:

Completely failed on the first question, was tough afterwards but redeemed from utter floppage.

That's the idea, you don't know how you've done, everyone will have found the questions difficult so I wouldn't worry!

Yeah, I was expecting to be challenged a lot - but the interviews were almost a surreal experience!

What sort of questions were they asking? Competency based ones or giving you data and answering questions on them?

Yeah I think they like to try and make it as weird as possible!
Portsmouth Offer (5th Choice) I waited 3 days after I sent my application for it.

I don't think we are allowed to discuss the questions asked in the interviews - rather be safe than sorry. They might use the questions for other candidates - I have no idea.

Definitely. They came in quick succession - very pressurised. Sort of enjoyable until you reflect on how badly it went afterwards.:smile:

Which college did you apply for?
