As much as you want it and I hope you get the offer because you obviously have shown the most commitment to it on here....other people rejecting it won't make a blind bit of difference to you getting an offer! They offer so many more people to actual space and will only accept you if they think you are good enough...if they don't want you first time, they won't take you if others drop out...it's not how it works :frown:

Ps they did this alot last year ... They rejected candidates post interview and then called them as spaces became available ....
Though i think they are trying to avoid this this year ....

They obviously pooled people for a reason otherwise those that got the "competitive score" email would have been rejected already. So it makes a huge difference! People withdrawing before offer means there's more of a chance for other people to get an offer.

Ok guys let me clear this up:-)
Basically ur interview score is put in a spread sheet .
They then keep changing the cutt off point depending upon places / demand and their own projections ;

So if they make you an offer you reject it this increases the chances of going to the next lower interview cut off ...
But they need loads to move to the next cut off i.E ur score was 85 and you were given an offer and so was everyone else with 85 ... They would pool 80 and above 84 and above ;
Now you reject the offer so the place goes to the pooled candidate ...
They basically will probably have like a class width of score which will be a cut off i.e. 82-85 ... And once they have done all they can for this class wisth they move to the next class width etc...

This is all just speculation but explains everything ... This delay etc in my opinion ... I could be completely wrong

Is anyone who has been accepted to Kings has also been accepted to Barts? I'm doubting between the two... Any comments?
