Cambridge rejections/acceptances

It MUST come tomorrow!

Ah right, I see, sorry didn't realise you applied for medicine (which college?) ! I applied for medicine too (at Oxford) - in that case a thin letter is likely to be bad news.

As for the post - normally a day but could be more depending if post is in good form.

paymaster - I think both acceptance and rejection letters from both Ox and Cam are automated, so I wouldn't expect anything too personal

Am I the only one who becomes apoplectic with rage when their family asks them about their Cambridge application?

If it doesnt im thinkin of actually goin down to the royal mail depot!

applied to christ's...damn (please dont be thin!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

through this thread I've upgraded myself from new to junior member~ thanks to cambridge

congrats! i've still got a long way to go....

i've read posts about people wishing they'd applied to oxbridge after deciding not to but is anyone else considering not accepting an offer from cam even if they get one? i have an offer to do maths & phys at manchester, a course which i would rather do than straight maths. why do people think that just because you've applied to oxbridge then that is you're first choice?

Does anyone else get this?

Well, since Oxbridge is a cut above the rest, everyone automatically presumes it's your first choice. It seems a bit pointless to go through the whole process if it doesn't mean that much to you.

tbh..got no hope....unles the admin tutors off his trolley when deciding

Don't think like that! I thought I had no hope because of my diabolical BMAT performance (that said, Ox use the BMAT to deselect pre-interview so once you get an interview your performance doesn't matter as much. I think ) and my biology teachers are going to cringe when they hear some of the rubbish which I produced in my interviews! I will even tell you some of the crappo I came up with to make you feel better if you like !

Right guys, I'm off to try and get some work done

Enjoy the New Year, whatever happens!

Good luck!!!

tell us - i think most people lie at least once during their interview. those that say they didn't are still lying when they are talking to you!

Applied to Churchill for Nat.Sci. (Physical)
The wait is getting really bad...most of you are expecting the reply in the next day or two...but for us over here....may take up to 10 days!
My friend who got his reply from Oxford recieved his letter 10 days after it was posted...sigh.
I don't want to go into my bio exam thinking about cambridge! =\
