Hey everyone, just found this thread,

I'm applying to John's for HSPS, and was starting to get worried as half my friends (different colleges) have now been called to interview and I haven't. This thread is reassuring :':wink:

How is everyone feeling so close to finding out about interviews?


I'm going for HSPS too! What track are you hoping to do and have you heard back from them yet?

Yay another HSPS applicant, I've been feeling lonely on this thread
I've heard nothing yet :/ Not very confident in my chances given a low UMS though, you?

And I want to do Politics, Sociology, IR, and Psychology in the first year, but beyond that I'm not sure. How about you?
Ahhh HSPS people! I'm interested in Sociology, Social Anthropology, Psychology and IR, super nervous though cause still no letter! :frown:

I'm thinkng about doing the exact same first year subjects as you! It seems like other colleges are much faster at getting back to their applicants, but I can't imagine John's taking much longer since the interviews are only about 2 weeks away :confused::eek:

A single error like that probably won't get noticed, and even if it did I can't imagine they'll much care compared to all the other info they have on you.

might end up seeing you on an almost daily basis then, sorry about that :s-smilie: They updated the applicants page to say they'd get everything out by the end of last week, so probably we'll know Monday or Tuesday fingers crossed!
