I read the student's prospectus of St Peter's, v. funny! I then thought about where I'd heard the name Rosalind Morgan before and flicked through the Oxford Prospectus and there she was lol!

Doing traditional subjects at AS should help. We're waiting for feedback on some unsuccessful applicants in February so St Peter's will tell us why some didn't get in.

To you guys studying English, I bought a lot of books on the reading list that I don't think i'll be using again (since you can't repeat any topics). I was just wondering if any of you would be interested in buying them since they are the ones on the reading list and it would obviously save a lot of money. Let me know if you're interested
