Why? That just sounds ages away.
It's only frustrating if that's why you want it to sink in.


lol i started thinking about it a few days after the interview so back then it was hundreds of hours left, now its just 40, which if you think about it is not much at all. just a couple sleeps away xD for those lucky enough to be able to fall asleep

though im interested why you doubt yourself so much? what did ya get in your a levels if you dont mind sharing

Letter from Cambridge, some colleges send emails to domestic applicants but not all of them.

Thank you!



And UCAS probably on Friday. :smile:

UCAS will have the offer details unlike the email.

Really hope I get an email from a different college, as I don't stand a chance getting a direct offer.


Why not?

Ohhh fair lol
I haven't sat my A Levels yet, but I am predicted 3 A*s (which doesn't mean anything to me tbh)
I got 3 A's at AS, with 94 avg UMS in maths.

I doubt myself because my BMAT was horrendous (I haven't seen anyone get into a non-mature college with the scores I got). Also, I felt quite...stupid in my interview? I'm just not used to chit-chatting with academics whilst I feel other people were more prepared. I also forgot basic biology 😂😂😂😂 oh I'm going to stop now, reminiscing is actually painful.

42 hours 16 minutes and the offers start to roll in. Have a moment to let that sink in...

Competition is too high for my college. Even if I am "good" I don't think I'll be good enough for one of the 10 places

see you do have some redeeming qualities in your application! although i get your strategy since you are a medicine applicant and getting into a *****y uni for med is just as hard as getting into cambridge for an unpopular course so med at cam is crazy hard to get into (ya feel me?) well dont get too hopeless, good luck! i still feel so dumb thinking about the stuff i said so you arent alone in that :biggrin:
I've been sick for the past few days so I've thought about the whole application process and tbh, couldn't be happier to have made an application to Cambs ^^ I didn't think I'd be even part of the interviewed applicants and yet I got an interview and the interview was honestly one of the most enjoyable academic situations I've known. Whatever the outcome I'll be grateful for the opportunity to even apply and to come for an interview. Of course I will be super disappointed by a rejection, who wouldn't really, but still would do this all again (except the NSAA maybe..) :smile:

But you also don't know how good were other applicants at your college. I guess we'll all see soon.
