Oxford 2014 Freshers Chat Thread

Does going to your college mean you're finding Jesus after a night out?

Posted from TSR Mobile

Unlike The Fray, she found God on the corner of Turl and Market.

I will always be amused by Jesus

My favourite will always be a piece of rowing clothing that quoted the bible (I paraphrase because I can't find a photo): "And they saw Jesus coming towards them across the water. And they were afraid."

I'm just happy after getting a pen from Jesus on an open day

No worries. Sorry you are finding it so hard to get an account with an overdraft. I do recommend you take a look at the advice on moneysavingexpert about improving your credit score though, if you haven't already - it might help to rebuild your ability to get a student account with some perks, for year 2 or 3. And I really would speak to your college if it's getting tough - I know what it's like to have nothing while you wait to get your student grant. Good luck.

I've just lost 14 marks on a remark from AQA!!! I'm so angry!!! Still have my A but can't believe the discrepancy in the marks... urgh Anyways, moving day is coming up soon so that's good at least

You got into Oxford, AQA can sod off :P

What did you think of Pembroke when you were at the open day?As you'd know, it has a lake. A lake.

If I was applying again, I'd consider making it my first choice

Isn't Woosta the one with the lake? Or does Pembroke have one too? I always think of Pembroke as the college with the snazzy new bridge and accommodation, but also the one that has no money because of the snazzy new bridge and accommodation.

I think his quote was a little messed up; I said everything after the question mark, originally




Really good thanks. It's a lot larger than I remember it being at interviews and the chapel/dining room are just lovely! They also let me see my room which was really nice Can't believe it all begins in a weeks time!

did your english remark change?

Ah when did I tell you about that?

But no, it came back exactly the same

Same happened to me! Haven't told my parents yet because they were assured they'd get the £40 back :P

Hi Lucilou hope all goes well when you move in.

Daughter arrived at Univ on Sunday. Freshers accommodation seems very interesting and varied. Refurbishing first year rooms so think she has a second year room. Or should I say two rooms!
Bedroom with sink etc and a lounge/ study with desk, easy chairs, coffee table, fridge. Loads of storage. Better than home so I am told .
One of her fellow scientists has a balcony and double doors.

Good luck.
