Im really annoyed that i was rejected when i scored 496 but I guess being put on the waiting list still means ive got some chance ...


Are you in care or get free school meals? Top two means you would have got in

Yep. Absolutely. I'm sure people will not accept the offer, or drop out.

was this a biology teacher by any chance?


Again I'm not sure because I was interviewed on politics, we discussed advantages and disadvantages of basic politics such as the the electoral methods such as FPTP and proportional representation and opinions about recent party activity such as labours promise to reduce tuition fees from 9k to 6k

You are probably very high in the waiting list, or just pop into hwsf on results day, they take it good students by making adjustments.

Im not sure I just remembered he was a bald unenthusiastic male. I wanted to be interviewed by the principal really.


I was interviewed by him as well in Geography, his main aim was to catch me out on a case study I brought up but question after question I dazzled him with statistics I memorised beforehand. He was an English teacher and had a smile on his face throughout. The interview ended with a firm handshake and an escort out the building.

To anyone who has been following, I spoke to the principal mr handscombe and he apologised as it was the schools mistake for not asking if I were in care during the application process and he is sending me the offer after all:biggrin:

Yeah that sounds like a good idea, and ahaha prepared much! Good thing you did that though, it's best not to take a chance with these type of things.
