Oxford Applicants for 2012 Entry

Original post by Brand New Eyes

Indeed!

stupid 6 million population! Yes, last time is was at a prison so I thought it'd be less popular but :frown:

I still didn't get it

I got an email Monday night, asking me to ring on Tuesday after 9am. That was easy for me this week with half term, but obviously harder with school!

Knowing me and my procrastinating ways I will only attempt to log in again on the day its due in. I hope its nothing major, i'm too stressed with Oxford and all the e-mails and the aptitude test :frown:

I can't deal with anything else.
I will let you know if i do manage to login, please do the same if you login before me?
Thanks, Good Luck to you too :smile:

If you copy and paste the address into the address bar, rather than following the link, it seems to work.

The PPH email arrived on my phone just as I was looking at Regent's Park's website! :eek:

Something mystical... I wouldn't mind, I find the tutors lovely and it should be nice to live in an all-arts-students environment :wink:

I opted out, though I only ticked opt out from Regent's Park cause it's the only one that does English... hope I did it right :s-smilie:

I'm not, don't want to lower my chance of getting in... it's a toughie.

Tough call on whether to opt out or not. Regent's Park College is lovely, but St Benet's only admits 16 undergraduates a year (all of which are male) so it limits social interaction slightly. Hmm.......

I've just done the PPH questionnaire, to log on you use the email address they sent the email to both as the username and the password (I copied & pasted to make sure I entered it right). At one point when going through it tells you which PPHs do your course and you can leave the webpage open whilst you look them up in another tab (I did), you only then need to complete the questionnaire if you don't want to be considered by one/all of the PPHs offering your course, as the default is that you don't mind.

And you do only need to opt out of the ones that offer your subject in the first place, if somewhere doesn't do your course then they won't consider you anyway

Chose not to opt out, the only one I'm possibly going to be moved to is Regent's Park and I've heard it's lovely. I honestly wouldn't mind where to go!

don't be! I had a dream yday that I was back at school and could finally enter in my three choices... :frown:

bit of a shock when I woke up and realised I had a whole 9 days to go.

p.s. this makes me sound so much geekier than I actually am :rolleyes:

honest! I am loving the 10 hour sleeps I get :sleep:

I don't think it's going to lower anybody's chance... You will still be interviewed by second and third colleges, only they're definitely not PPHs if you opt out...

That's another interesting Q actually. Does opting out lower chances? Statistically it must.

It sounds like you can choose to opt out of specific PPHs :smile:

You can add your extra choices anytime! No need to be at school... (I added one Wednesday night!)
