Aha, I've applied to Balliol and had nothing back yet :frown: I can't keep up the waiting much longer, can't help but feel it'll be an epic fail :biggrin:/D:


The longer I wait, the more I expect the worst :frown: Just want to know now ! Hopefully it'll be good news for both of us :smile:
Just got my interview at Wadham through the post - no e-mail. Didn't think to look there!

Yeah, no news is good news or whatever :P

I think the latest the letters can come/be dispatched is next Wednesday so it's not a bad thing that we haven't heard back yet I guess. Fingers crossed and good luck to you! :biggrin:

Fair point, but I'd rather be reading and mulling at my leisure as opposed to militant crazy reading and notetaking to make sure everything is done in time...


:grin: You probably wouldn't enjoy an Oxford History degree then. Militant crazy reading and notetaking to make sure everything is done in time is pretty much the norm here.
