2016 Durham University hopefuls

Scroll to see replies

GCSE: 4A*s 7As 2Bs
AS: AAAA in maths, chemistry, biology, physics + A in general studies but who cares.

Their admissions process seems rather random though and I've seen people with much better grades getting rejected... but I'm not complaining about the offer haha :smile:

Did you also apply for chemistry?

Yes, I applied for Chemistry, although I was rejected.

Got a 28 for my LNAT with a fairly good PS, however I got rejected by UCL due to my LNAT essay not being strong enough and KCL due to my predicted grades (which I do not know). However I have offers from Birmingham and Warwick.

What are my chances of an offer from Durham? :frown:

My guess is that you can't really be sure what goes into their decision... Warwick and Birmingham are both very good universities so you probably still have a shot at Durham, fingers crossed for you!

Almost 4 for me. It's ok, you can do this! They will almost certainly get back to you by the end of March, even though it's a longer wait. It'll be worth it <3
