Aw okay congrats! I'm so desperate for Stirling to get back to me cause I'm pretty sure it's my first choice. I take it they're not doing interviews this year then, what specialism did you apply to?

Nope no interviews, phewww! With early years, but I wouldn't worry too much I don't know anyone else who has heard back from them yet! I'm desperate to hear back from Glasgow and Dundee😬😬

Aw I know the wait is honestly agony! I've just heard that apparently there was 1200 applicants for 45 spaces at Stirling so I'm not holding out much hope 😞 so you've done amazing to get an offer! What highers and experience did you have?

Ah I've got nowhere near that 😬 I got five a's at higher and volunteer two days a week in one primary school and one day a week in another, I've started working in an after school club too but that's really recent so isn't in my personal statement

I applied for Strathclyde, Glasgow, Dundee and Edinburgh aswell. I have an unconditional for Strathclyde and had interviews for the rest but only went to the Edinburgh one, still not heard back. Where is your first choice?

I'm desperately waiting to hear from Dundee, Edinburgh and Stirling. Dundee said at interviews wouldn't hear back before march now it's march I'm jumping every time I get an email. Anyone heard from Dundee now?

Got conditional to Strathclyde and Aberdeen.

I withdrew from Dundee so not waiting to hear from them, but apparently Edinburgh is aiming to get all their offers out by the end of this week. No idea how true that is though!

Ooh well if that's the case I definitely didn't get that, haven't had interview. I'm doing a HNC though and had been told not to expect Edinburgh for that reason! I hope you guys all get your good news from them by the end of the week!

On Friday I got an unconditional and 2 girls I know got conditionals from Dundee. However I hadn't heard of anyone getting one before that.

I wouldn't be surprised if they were aiming for the end of this week for most people. Especially since in the application confirmation email they committed to the deadline of the 31st.
