Heya.. Don't worry too much about it. I'm trying to feel that way too if I get rejected and I'm sure that you'll find yourself in a great university. And Germany's a lovely country yeh? So take care and enjoy the new year.


thanx and good luck, dont think i'll stick around here for much longer.

(a) College? Jesus
(b) Subject? f****ing Architecture
(c) Yay or nay or pooled? Nay
(d) Expected? Kinda, but thought I'd get pooled at least.
(e) Offer requirements if yay? n/a
(f) Thoughts ? Gutted. I'm off Architecture now and might go into something that'll earn me some money. Would've loved to study in England but I can't see that happening any more. At least I'm avoiding the University-Fees that way.

Sorry to hear about that. I'm sure you'll do well wherever you go, and you may want to consider re-applying

Poo :'(.. I don't think I can stand here reading about how really really able people got rejected. It's really unfair and I feel guilty for wanting to get accepted so badly! I really hope I get accepted, but if I don't, I can console myself knowing that many many great people are in the same boat as me, and we'll go on to do well in whatever university we choose... so yeh :smile: Trying to think postiive.

Thanks for your encouragement. If the Admissions office are open and decide to be nice... I may get the results tonight. Would anyone know if the admissions offices are open? I'm so far away from the UK so this is all a bit foreign to me.

I'm not sure if they will be open. I suppose you could try phoning them , though it could be a bit expensive. E-mail is an option as well, they usually reply quite quickly, though I doubt they will tell you their decision by e-mail

Did you apply to other unis? If so, are you considering going to them?

It's okie. I'll stick with faxing. :smile: BTW, the 2nd of Jan isn't a public holiday in the UK rite? Coz' if it isn't.. I'm hoping they are open. Hehe.. I think they'd get a bit irritated if I faxed, emailed and called them. They must be getting lots of calls etc after sending out the results.

Woah! All unis are free! :smile: Yayz.. lucky you. When I go to the UK, I have to pay about 25,000 pounds a year for tuition + accomodation. And in Malaysian ringgit (my nationality) though not where I'm living now... it's 1 pound to 6.6 ringgit. Lolz........

SO you can imagine.

Have you heard anything from Liverpool yet? Ive applied for Veterinary medicine...


Nope, having heard anything from them yet.

And by the way, nice avatar mjf...

You can go ahead and use it if you like, but I would have greatly appreciated you asking me for permission first. I spent quite a long time producing that image in Fireworks.

Oh btw.. If I don't get in. Are Nottingham, Manchester and Durham good 2nd choices? And which one would you think is the best? I've never visited them before and I heard Durham is freeeeeeezing. But yeh, I've got offers from all of them for ABB and I will use them as 1st or 2nd choices if cambridge rejects me.

I didn't realise you were Malaysian. I'm Malaysian too, although I live in Australia now. It certainly is expensive studying in the UK... my information has been that it costs roughly £8,000 per annum for living expenses (accomodation, food, etc.)... is that what you're figuring?

Anyway... I hope you receive a reply very soon, although, knowing Cambridge, their admissions office will not be open to-day. I know the BGS has very limited phone hours (2 p.m. - 4 p.m.), so if I want to ring them, I have to stay up until 1 a.m. here.

Heya :smile: Have you got their results as well? And what is BGS? Lolz.. I'm slow.
