Thanks, I'm just so anxious. Yes, I hope to see you there! Of course you will get one, like 95% of Chemistry applicants get interviewed! Which college did you choose? :smile:

Knowing my luck, I'll probably be in the 5% that don't get interviewed :wink:

I hope I'll actually be able to go to the interview if I get one, I'm having knee surgery the week before :s-smilie:

I chose Brasenose, you chose Keble, right? I really liked it there, almost picked it but then decided that I wasn't going to get in anyway and decided I wanted to be closer to the train station for the interviews, since it's less far to hop along on crutches!

Yup, if you sent it a week before you would still get offers, you could even if your grades are below. It'd be harder if your course is a competitive one. What are you applying for?

Business Management to good London unis and might include Birmingham and Surrey (unfortunately I don't meet the grade requirements for Kings College and LSE tough)

How about yourself?

Just received an offer from Manchester! It is great relief :biggrin:

Has anyone heard from Queen Mary at all ( I didn't even get a welcome letter)?

I sent my ucas off on tuesday, and all my unis have replied except for queen mary, they probably cant be arsed or are just insanely busy. Oh and congratulations:P

Surely that'd mainly be people whose grades/references aren't up to scratch? Yeah, I applied to Keble. Well good thinking ahead about the train station, I mainly applied to Keble because it's closest to the Chemistry department :lol:

Good luck with the operation.

Those acknowledgement e-mails. Rush of adrenaline..... *opens e-mail*.... Are you an offer ? No. Knew you wouldn't be but I still got my hopes up illogically at the sight of your universities name in the subject field.*Sighs*.... Well that's the last time I'll be hearing from your for a few months automated e-mail system it was nice knowing you.

Keble is also really nice! One of my friends applied there for Physics :smile:

I find it really weird that we don't have to do an admissions test for Chemistry, four of my friends are applying for other subjects and all of them have to do admissions tests!
Thank you :smile:

That's good to know :biggrin:

I find it weird too, but it's one less thing to worry about! Haha, I don't know anyone in real life who's applying to Oxbridge :colondollar:

The truthful answer is any time between now and May 9th.

Sheffield were really quick, I just got an email saying I have an offer which has got me really excited and terrified at the same time, haha. I hope the others will respond quickly.

I've had no acknowledgement from Imperial at all. Apparently they're giving out interviews already. :s-smilie:

Ah that's okay then. They don't interview for maths so I'm good. :smile:
