I go to St.Doms & I love it there!
All the teachers are so helpful and friendly, the college itself does alot to help you with your subjects and uni and they've got lots of opportunities for extra curricular things too so Doms is deffo recommended by me! :smile:

I wouldn't know, sorry. I moved from Rickmansworth School to WBGS for sixth form and they really didn't give a **** about the 'new' boys. I'm pretty sure my UCAS reference was mediocre as a result. Having said that, it certainly didn't stop me from pursuing my ambitions at the time. The maths department was pretty good but I remember having to self-teach and direct my own learning (besides what we did in class) to get decent grades in the sciences and especially in computing. This was from 2007-2009 though. Things may have improved since then.

Don't worry, the interview's pretty easy :smile:
Just things like 'why do you want to come here' and 'what do you want to do in the future'
Nopee deffo not, the only thing is the grade point average is higher for non-Catholics or something like that

Then at the end I was told that not many people get in and that doesnt mean you are not good, it's just that there are few places. Were u told that at interview coz I'm beginning to think that I was told that bcoz I didnt get in :frown:

It's been a week and I still haven't heard anything. :frown: I had the head of Sixth Form, don't know her name, bt she's a bio teacher. My one was very formal and was like a test. Very scary. My interview lasted 30 mins bt it felt much much longer :frown:
