I’ve applied to Exeter, St. Andrews, Surrey, Cardiff and Royal Holloway. Been given an offer from Cardiff and Royal Holloway so far.
How long did it take for Exeter to reply after sending off your application?

It was about 10 days I think from sending off my application to getting an offer

I applied for St Andrews, Glasgow, Dundee and Aberdeen for Comp Sci. Then Edinburgh for A.I. I applied about a week ago and I've had acknowledgements from all of them but no offers yet.

Would you mind sharing the grades you applied with?

4 A* with a B in EPQ. It's weird that we've applied to pretty much the same places....

Thanks for sharing! And yeah it is a little odd.

Hopefully I can make the cut with A*A*AA. I've been a bit apprehensive since hearing about rejections of people with A*A*AA from warwick.
