Got an offer for Drama Studies and English today, AAB but ABB if I firmed after applying 4 days ago, so surprised they got back to me so quickly!
I've also applied to Royal Holloway, Goldsmiths, Essex and Greenwich and currently have offers from Goldsmiths and Greenwich and am attending an interview for Essex in a few weeks.
At AS I got an A in Drama and Theatre studies and a B in English Lit as my third subject (Biology) is linear.
A2 predicted AAB :smile:

I believe they give out unconditionals to those who already have their grades (obviously) and then a select few others based mostly on past exam results (i.e. GCSE and AS (if completed)) , although they also look a bit at personal statement, reference and predicted grades. I believe they start giving out the unconditionals in January.

Makes sense! Thank you!
