Offer from interview on the 17th December :biggrin:
Such a shock as I thought my interview stations were genuinely horrific... I had totally written Leicester off so anybody who also thought their interview wasn't great, don't give up!!
Good luck guys :smile:

congratulations !! Any one who got an offer for 17th interview international or home students !!
Hi guys
i know this is a hard question but for December interviews what proportion of people do you reckon get early offers (ie before march). I haven't got one and don't know anyone who does but on here it seems a fair few people have? Thanks :smile:

Statistically (and very approximately) they still have 135 of their 809 interviews to do. They would have to presume (to be safe) that all 135 of those will outperform the previous interviewees and would therefore have to hold back around 39% of their offers just in case this occurred. in reality those 135 offers will be spread over the entire distribution of interviewees including many from December and January. There will also most likely be a huge swathe who have exactly the same interview score and who need splitting into 'yes' and 'no' which will mean a review of interview score sheets or UCAS forms. Uncertainty as to the threshold score for this group means that the actual number of offers sent out so far is probably much lower than you would think. Relax, definitely not too late...

Hey, do you think its unusual that Leicester has not sent pre-interview rejections? or have they? Last year they started to send pre-interview rejections after Christmas/New year break - Just curious..

I don't know of any rejections but they may just be off the radar. They are perhaps concentrating their resources on dealing with all the positive applications first maybe..?
For those who have had interviews what score out of sixty did you have? I have 57 and was wondering what my chances of being called for interview are. I know the cut off last year was 57. Does anyone have any idea whether it has moved up or down this year?
