I don't think the only thing they are after are perfect grades. If there are hundreds of applicants and almost everyone are top grade students, they have to use all the information they can get out of the personal statement and reference. Tough, but that's life. :/

I agree with Salla, its not all about grades. Sure straight As are great but not if u dont have anything else to offer.
Reply 23
Wow, this is shocking. Your grades are neat indeed and I would have expected you to receive an offer. I know I would have expected one if I were you.

Sorry to hear about your situation. Let's hope you get into Cambridge. :biggrin:

I'm sorry about your Law rejection at Manchester!!! You are a VERY good candidate! Dont worry... a girl in my school (who also applied to Camb) just got one offer last year for Law... AT LSE!!! :eek: Amazing isnt it? 4-5 rejections and getting an offer from LSE to study Law! :confused:

About UCL Economics rejection... I got mine last year the 4th of December... my first rejection... however after having a look at my mates PS I realised mine was REALLY BAD!!! However I got an interview at Camb (not very difficult to get, I know :p: ) but 6 rejections! lol! This year my PS is very good and I'm applying to courses / universities I really like! :biggrin: Hopefully I'll have better luck! :wink:

mmm about vaider application to Birmingham for Business with predicted grades of BCC... it is not very smart I have to say... their typical offer is ABB, isnt it?

thanks! :smile:
Sometimes I think unis reject obviously exceptional candidates just to to satisfy their egos - for instance one of my friends who is now reading Law at Cambridge got 7As at higher, school dux and all that jazz, and got rejected from Durham and somewhere else (can't remember atm).
yeah i rejected your mam last night

Manchester was a huge Uni and it's even bigger now, I wouldn't be suprised if it has the highest number of aplicants. It's an excellent uni, with an amazing reputation and in a great location, they can reject whoever they want and for whatever reason they want.
However, last year the rejected a lot of eople from my school, the head of careers wrote to them asking for an explanation, resulting in loads of people getting offers made to them in the end

Two girls I know got rejected from Warwick for English. No letter or anything, just rejection.

I applied for English and Creative Writing. Nothing yet.

Good grief, if they're rejecting on the basis of GCSE grades, I'm for the wolves!!!!! :biggrin:
