Oxford Applicants 2016 Entry & Interview chat

I just got an email from my college titled "Interview Invitation", but the body of the message said that they were sending a "friendly remind" asking for me to inform them wether I plan on going there for my interview or conduct them over Skype. I haven't received an email or letter with a formal invitation for interview yet, so this is very strange. I emailed back and asked about it, but haven't heard anything yet, and most likely won't until tomorrow given the time. Currently freaking out.

If you're an international, did you inform them about whether you wanted to come in person or skype when you applied? I thought they required that info from international applicants a while ago

I'm applying for French! Have you heard anything back yet? :smile:

Also has anyone heard from New College?

I've applied to Worcester for German and French, haven't heard anything yet😔 How did you find the MLAT?

I never received anything asking about it before now. Last year I was asked of my plans in the email that invited me to interview, so I don't think anything is different.

GUYS I just got an email asking if I would like to change my application to just French instead of History and French. I'm assuming this means that the French part of my application was stronger than the History part and they would like to interview me for just French. What should I do??

Depends on how badly you want to study history vs how much you want to go to Oxford

As far as I'm aware, all history joint school applicants get asked this at some stage. I assumed it would be a box to tick or something if you fill out some form for interview. So it could just be standard. Don't just take my word for it though!

Sounds like history stuff shouldn't be long then.

Me neither :s-smilie:

I was so close to applying for French and German but changed my mind to do single honours French! (I do both at Alevel)

I didn't think it was impossible, but elements were certainly challenging, some of the translations were a bit mean! What about you? :smile:

I'm unsure but personally this reads to me like you have a chance for French and if you stick with History and French you will probably be rejected. If you do want Oxford and don't mind dropping History, I would say yes, but it's up to you. :smile:

Has anyone been rejected yet? It seems like only acceptances have been sent out.

Anyone doing Human Sciences? Still waiting to hear back. Not sure if the TSA has been marked yet.

Yeah it appears some of our TSAs must have been marked, but almost all subjects are still waiting! I stalked last years thread and St Johns sent out human sciences invites on the 25th - it may be different this year though due to introducing the TSA though. Can't stop stressing over it ahhhh

Every Law applicant in my school bar one has been rejected. Someone posted on here about an Oriental Studies rejection. The lack of posts is understandable tbh haha but yes people have been rejected.

Upon reflection, I think I could've done better, but I was quite nervous. I agree about the translations, grammar wasn't too bad, but wish I had time to check over it. What are your grades like?

Hey! Do you know if they send out rejections before or after acceptances? or is it at the same time? Thanks!
