Durham Applicants 2008 Thread

And there is so little space to go around, it's not like this thread is for 2008 applicants to talk about the application process...
Considering most of us are going through a similar experience - still waiting - it's nice to share that and know others are in the same boat as you.

Nah, its the way that some people keep making lots of posts to announce they dont have an offer yet. Seriously, do you think anyone here gives a damn how long you are waiting? Please all of you waiting, go to the bar or whatever and have a splendid time. As opposed to obsessively counting down on here on a day by day basis. It is sad and really really boring to read....

Tell us when you actually have a decision, thats actually useful to know. Telling us that they haven't decided yet, is just irritating at best.

Wow... Next years freshers in a university of how many people? You really are making the effort...

Lol. This quote about the applicants on here is brilliant, because its exactly what i want to tell Durham. They've managed to send me two letters so far simply telling me that they still havn't made a decision.

And buckets of posts saying they still dont have an offer helps me get to know them how exactly?

And bucket loads of posts saying "I have an offer" would help you to get to know them how exactly?

Oh sorry, I didn't realise we were on here so you could get to know us. Obviously a misunderstood thread title! *rolls eyes*


Oh beleive me, valium doesnt work when you feel the UCAS stress creeping in at you from the corners. Ignoring it works, kinda, until somebody you know suddenly starts squealing that theyve got an offer and you once again want to bash your head against a wall.

Ah, of course. I forgot you were the overlord of St Aidens, and gaining knowledge of the decisions made by the departments and your college is imperative to your existence. How foolish of me...

Oh shut up HMK, I don't see much point in you posting in this thread if you're just going to complain about people posting in it.

Gaining knowledge of who is coming to Aidans (note how it is spelt ) is useful, given I am probably going to meet a lot of them. It does concern me what next years intake is like.

HMK, you may be overreacting a little. Sure its tiresome to read buy hey, so long as they all keep it in one thread and don't spam the whole forum with incessant threads entitled ''Why haven't Durham got back to me yet!!!Wah!!!!111'' then I have no problem with it.

If I told you that your admissions tutors may possibly be reading this board, i suspect you would be more sensible with what you write...
