LMH Oxford: Ask us anything

Thanks so much for this and I'm really sorry that you are having to chase up. Please PM me your name and I will head to the Admissions Office to find out what has happened here.

Any luck in finding out when we're going to receive feedback? Are we going to receive any feedback? Ever?

Hello, I am so sorry - I came down with a virus last week, and was out of work as a result. However, I have just messaged this as a matter of urgency to our Senior Tutor and will get back to you as soon as is possible. I am really sorry about this.

Hi @stellamaris333, our Senior Tutor has sent your feedback this morning. I'm afraid a staff shortage problem has caused the delay, please accept our apologies.

Got it! Many thanks for your help. I got my PAT score back but I didn't get my scores for my interviews. Do you know if this information can or will be given out? It would be really helpful if I got my individual interview scores to help me prepare for reapplication for next year. Hope you have recovered from your virus and feel better soon.

Hi @stellamaris333, glad that came through! I would respond to Fiona's email, as she is best placed to advise you on this. Good luck to you in whatever it is that you do choose to do - and please do get in touch if you have any other questions

All best,
Marrium

Hi, @LMH OXFORD, I wanna ask a non college specific question, if it's okay.
Is the dress code very strict for the Matriculation ceremony? I mean, is it a must to wear black suit? is navy/dark blue acceptable?

Hello! Most students will wear black, but you can wear whatever you want (including a dark blue) within these regulations: https://www.ox.ac.uk/students/academic/dress?wssl=1

Does the university of Oxford look at gap year applicants for maths negatively? Just wanted to confirm?
Is there anything that the university likes to see in particular from gap year math applicants?

Hi Rohan, I'm just pasting in a very useful paragraph from the Maths Department:

Deferred entry applications in Mathematics will be considered from applicants who have planned structured activities in their gap year; activities might include technical employment relevant to Mathematics, teaching abroad or a gap year programme. If uncertain, applicants should raise any questions with the tutors at their chosen/allocated college; tutors may discuss details of the gap year during interviews. After discussion with the candidates, some deferred entry applicants may be offered an immediate place instead. There is no policy for making more demanding offers to candidates seeking a deferred offer. Tutors will typically set successful gap year applicants academic work to be completed during the year or the summer before their first term in Oxford.


Hope that helps but let me know if you have any more questions. And, if you can, do try to make an Open Day - it's a really useful opportunity to speak to our lovely Maths tutors

Hey,

I know these things are not set in stone, as off there are many other factors involved but I am considering of replying for PPE with the grades of A*A*AA in maths, politics, economics and psychology respectively. I know it is difficult to materialise the process but just want to know the risk that I would be taking! Thank you!
