Oh, wow, congratulations! :h:

I wish I were you right now... The wait is going to be much longer for me as I'm applying for medicine - the most oversubscribed course ever! :frown:

Thank you! :biggrin:

Oh wow, that will be a painful wait... luckily I'm applying for Geography which seems to be one of the less competitive subjects in most places. I guess there's no telling though. :s-smilie:

Good luck with your application! :smile:

Yeah, you said it... :redface:

I hope it'll all be worth it in the end.

Sent mine off a couple of weeks ago (because of Cambridge) and the daily checking of 'Track' is getting very unhealthy. It's ridiculous to even assume I'll have offers so early in the process, but I psychologically can't help it; it's awful. Should hopefully have a couple of decisions by Christmas, good luck to everyone applying/feeling the same!

Awww - in exactly in the same position (apart from it being Oxford) and it is horrible. Best of luck and hopefully you'll start getting offers soon! :smile:

Yay this is so fun!!

Medical student, applied to barts (queen Mary's), southampton, kcl and Edinburgh, every email I get scares the life out of me! Anyone in the same boat?! D:

I nearly got run over and had a heart attack today because I thought a surrey university email was an offer :colonhash:

I literally stopped in the middle of the road, scrolling through the email and I see it's only them asking me to login to their online portal :sigh:

EDIT: Why all the reps?! Not that I'm complaining but I could've died people! :tongue:

Haha I hadn't thought it was funny at the time :wink:

And I've already been in a road accident once...I can imagine what the headlines might've been 'Girl, 17, dies because of an email' :colonhash:

I didn't even know they gave offers this early! Except for early applicants (I'm applying for Oxbridge). I suppose I will now find myself joining the "obsessive checking" club. Should never have looked at this thread.

Sent mine in on Friday. Turns out my tutor hasn't even started the teacher references yet, and my other teachers from last year all forgot. Greeeat...

Congrats Lucy! :biggrin:

This is so painful especially since my girlfriend already has two offers, my email provider is probably wondering why I'm constantly on their website!
