Yeah thats true im rather the same in terms of underestimating. They interview 74% so we do have a good chance.

What are you history applicants stats if you dont mind sharing?

Hey, more history people! I thought the HAT was reasonable, but I kind of flew off the deep end on the third question. So I hope that the risk I took paid off (it usually doesn't in these scenarios, but I'm still hoping...). Anyway, I'm an American, so my stats don't align with British ones, but for the sake of future American applicants who might be perusing this thread: I submitted five 5s on APs (English Lit and Lang, US and Euro History, French), plus a 34 ACT.

has anyone from the US received a request for interview for PPE yet??
Anyone applying to Trinity to study Law?

Seems like one of the latest colleges to send interview invites :/

Got allocated to Somerville instead of Keble for law! So happy :smile:


Congratulations! Sorry to ask, but does that mean that you got an actual interview at Somerville or did they just inform you that you are now being considered by them? I am a fellow law applicant at Somerville :smile:

Haha, I just made a connection between his observation of the dog-ones and his worldview that might have been a little too ambitious. Plus I used a little background information, which you're not supposed to do. So we'll see. And to answer your other question, I'm applying to Christ Church!

A few factors. Visually, of course, it's stunning. I also like that it's one of the largest colleges. And the other facilities (especially the cathedral, whose choir I love - I'm sort of a closet Palestrina fan, and the picture gallery) also add to its appeal.
