Applying to UWC through UWCGB

I also got an offer to come on the 12th!

nah if anything winging will make it more natural! But I'd at least check over your application so you remember what you put! ( i couldn't remember everything i put down until I read over my application last night)


Also , is it okay *general questions now* if I've changed my mind about "what will you be doing in twenty years time" question?

I mean I said I'd either want to study Geog , French or Physics and then do some stuff like work with NGOs and stuff

Will it count against me if I now want to do either maths or physics , but still hopefully do something related to charities?Like , I don't want them to think I was lying because I've honestly just changed my mind. Now Im worried that it'll count against me...

I think y'all would agree that it took a lot of thinking and self-reflection to get that application written, like I broke me at some point wondering who I really was and where my identity came from.

So it's only natural that you've changed your mind and reconsidered things, because I remember Princepieman saying about the massive effect that applying would have on us, earlier in the thread, and I can definitely say that I've started seeing and doing things differently since.

And hahaha, I put a little sentence at the end of that question as a disclaimer, saying that my plans will probably change/evolve.

Congrats to all! I've been watching this thread quietly for a while out of curiosity and am now in some intense shock about the fact I got an interview (yay).

Going on the 13th to stay over for the 14th.

I'm so excited/absolutely terrified about it! Should be fun. Nice to relax for a bit after a day of having a small heart attack every time I get an email.

I also tentatively mentioned at the bottom that my aspirations would "probably change in a minute" (wondered if this was a bad move) but they didn't seem to mind.

Mate , I talked about kebab night with the lads at one point - I think the fact that we're not too formal in the application is part of what hopefully made us stand out a bit... I'veasked babasically everyone now - what did they say they liked about your application in your interview offer email?

They said they liked my volunteering stuff, and interest in foreign music )

I've literally spent the day going through all the colleges, and sort of comparing them all. i feel way too picky though I've crossed off about 5.

Am I the only one? like what about you guys?

Congratulations to you all! I spent all of the three months working my butt off for the application round but didn't make the cut which has been upsetting to say the least! Furthermore one of my friends and my boyfriend got interviews, ouch! I'm so so jealous of all of you and hope you all get places!

Hi everyone! I secured an invitation to the assessment day, Sat 12 to Sun 13th. Something I can't say that I was expecting at all as I genuinely did not believe that I'd be shortlisted. Does anyone know, roughly, how many applied? And is bringing a parent compulsory because I'm keen to just hop on a train without any hassle? Finally, I have a full week of mocks immediately before that weekend, does anyone else have this problem? If so, I am concerned as to how we are going to prepare during/following these exams (albeit mocks lol). Cheers!

My mocks are a fortnight before interview but I only have five mocks and one is english language and another is welsh language so I'm just gonna wing the mocks and prepare for the interviews! Got a first mock interview tomorrow!! WELL DONE BY THE WAY
