Would it be likely that I would get an interview?


You exceed the normal entry requirements and have good GCSEs; you'd have to do some kind of spectacular ****-up to not be interviewed.

I am glad to get away from Christmas pictures beside names (reindeer, holly etc) ...I have had enough of them...

The conversation bubble designs could do with improving...may be it is because I cannot work out how to put in a picture... do have to put it in an album?

if your A levels are up to Cambridge standards the single most important thing that could **** you up is how you choose to spend your gap year

Guys I'm a bit worried because I'll be at school tomorrow, and I never get signal there. Will it be a problem if I got a phone call at say 10am from a pooling college and then I didn't reply until after 4 o'clock? Or would I get an e-mail? As you can probably tell mild hysteria has set in, was hoping someone would put my mind at rest!

Also, a question I probably don't want to know the answer to but yet I'm still asking: is there an average UMS/interview score that would almost certainly guarantee an offer or a good chance in the pool? Like for example 99% UMS/an 8 at interview?

I would imagine the college would understand you calling them back at 4 esspecially as it would be unreasonable for them to expect you to recall during college times (some don't allow phones).

I can't see someone with 99% and an 8 not getting an offer but without knowing our interview scores will just have to wait :smile:

If you average over 95%, didn't have a terrible interview and are state schooled you have a good chance, I'm sure it'd be okay if you reply a couple of hours later and from what I've heard they might email aswell about re-interview :smile:
