I would say mostly 9s. However their sixth form choices were courses that probably wouldn't be highly suscribed compared to maths or science.
Still no email of confirmation

Unfortunately,I’ve heard that tiffin is now finalising the remaining applicants that are going to be invited therefore it’s unlikely for us to be selected.

yea that sounds about right, I haven't gotten anything either. I looked at previous years of Tiffin threads from applicants and right now is the time that they make their interviews
To be honest, I never really hoped to get an interview from Tiffins since some of my teachers gave me some low predicted grades (8.25 is my average predicted) so I’ll email my GCSE results on the day as they always have at least 10 additional spots from people not meeting their conditional offers.

don't mean to be a boomer, but I have also searched up (On TSR) that someone applied and was put on a waiting list. If you got an email in January about the confirmation they had around 1000 applicants and all schools over subscribe the courses so they'll fill up and if there too many people that get in, then they choose the best student and who lives closer.

they also pay a lot of attention on your personal statement and reference letter. I am headgirl in my school and they asked me a lot of questions about my role etc.

I guess it must have been my reference letter and personal statement that let me down since at the time I wasn’t exactly serious in applying for tiffins thus I didn’t answer the questions about hobbies and ext to the best of my ability.
