University of Oxford offer-holders' thread 2015

Hi, any lawyers? What are you guys thinking of insuring? I can't decide because literally everything is the same offer.

Bit late but got an offer for MChem, but i will be rejecting it or maybe an insurance if my world turns upside down.....

That's unexpected, considering your username!
Where would you rather go??!

I have a fully funded place at MIT , and the username was just a little tongue in cheek

So i guess in the grand scheme of things i would be mad to turn it down, I did an open application to Oxford and got an offer for St Hugh's........

Does anyone know who I should contact in this situation? Basically, I've realised that there is a module (actually more than one, but one in particular) in Oxford's Physics course that's actually extremely relevant to what I want to do after my undergraduate degree and I wanted to find out if the contents in that module is something I could study as part of my Earth Sciences degree (for instance, if it'd be possible to do that as a fourth year project or if it appears in any of the Earth Sciences modules). Is it okay to email the admissions department about this or would this come across as annoying? I don't want to switch to Physics, but I would really like to know if it's at all possible to cover this module in my degree because it's something I'd really like to study. Alternatively, is there any possibility of studying modules from outside of your course?

Hi everyone,

Course: Physics (MPhys)
College: St Anne's
Outome: Offer 90% grades

How I feel: Satisfied and relieved , but the condition quite made me like.

Any other St Anne's Physics people around ?

Are you doing A-levels?

I'm not a physicist (I've got an offer for CompSci) but it's nice to see so many other people applying to St Anne's from TSR Did either of you get a chance to get involved with the Mafia card game we had going on during interviews? I can't believe we played that past midnight :L

Like I said for FelixTheKat... I interviewed via Skype and missed out on all the fun...How about another game at Ox itself if we happen to meet, eh ?

Aww well rest assured you definitely picked the right college! Everybody is so down to earth and friendly That may well happen as the guy who introduced the game to everyone got in ^^ Are you particularly excited to get involved with anything extra-curricular? I can't wait to try rowing, myself :P

Hey, again.. I'm particularly interested in playing the guitar and maybe join a music ensemble.. Wouldn't mind joining soccer.

You'll have to stop calling it soccer if you do want to join

Not sure if someone answered this but my flat mate is a chemist who now working in physics so it is possible to do research in what your really interested in if your keen and normally you just need a co/supervisor from within your department. The admissions staff won't know what your talking about to be honest and the best people to talk to would be your tutors once you start considering research projects.
