but isn't SAQ theory usually always debunked?


Me neither :tongue: it hasn't changed on mine. I agree with the others, the SAQ theory is rubbish.

Anyone heard anything for HSPS?


Fellow HSPS applicant here! (pooled from Downing).

Haven't heard anything, yet, but fingers crossed! How about you?

Hi guys! I got pooled for Geography from Sidney Sussex this morning, and I have to say a big thank you to the OP for making the FAQ because it really helped calmed my nerves (even though I was certain I wasn't going to get in).

The good news is that I got a phone call a couple of hours ago saying they're offering me a place at Robinson! My answer to the phone call was hardly elegant (I think I only said "thank you!!" a lot), but I'm wishing everyone else in this thread the best of luck at getting fished.

I can also confirm that the SAQ theory is currently rubbish, as my form still says Sidney Sussex on it.

If this helps, last year my referee asked for feedback, the admissions tutor from my original college rang him and told him about my interview notes but also some information about the other applicants, e.g. where I ranked.


ah okay thanks for the info (:

I have been invited to a second set of interviews at Selwyn College!! :smile:

Just wondering if someone can give me some advice. Will these be in the same format as the ones in December or will they be different??

Congratulations! :smile: That's brilliant news (and I can guarantee that if I do manage to be fished, I'll just stutter down the phone to the effect of "wow, thank you"!)

And thanks for debunking the SAQ theory - it's reassuring to know!
