How you found out: Email - Thought that I'd check the weather forecast before bed to see if any snow's coming along, and I hear my email beep at me. Open it up to see '2 new mail - 1 from contact' sitting there.. and then there was the awkward wait for the emails to appear.. and there it was! - 'Oxford Interview:Biochemistry'! :biggrin:

Reaction: AAaaaah, actually over the moon. I don't care that 98% of biochem applicants get one, because I get to go to Oxford! :wink:

Keeping it a secret from my parents till the morning though! :wink:
