Do all applications get asked to fill in a SAQ? UCAS sent me a letter last Monday saying They have informed my unis about my application. Still not been asked to do a SAQ yet

when entering the unit titles on my modules results there is a character limit and sometimes I cant fit in the whole title. Should I just abbreviate the titles or what?


Put etc. on the end.

I sent my application off on the 29th september and I have had nothing back.

However it may have been in my junk folder, which got emptied on the 5th october.

Should i contact the university? they say if you havent received anything call on the 20th but i might have recieved something which has subsequently been deleted.

This is such a drag!

Do you use hotmail? Mine was put into junk in my hotmail account. So I'd say contact the university since you probably deleted it...

I know, how bad.

I dont want them to be like, 'we were just getting round to sending it to you, don't be an impatient little bitch' though...

They will almost definitely have sent it to you, with it going in your junk and getting deleted. Email them for another link to the SAQ site.

I had this last year, didnt hear of anything for 2 months. Didnt even know I had to complete an SAQ. Best bet is to phone them up pronto.

Just called and they've shut for the weekend! waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. I've got a free weekend too, I was hoping to get it done.
sent an email, I assume they shut over the weekend too? ****.

found a mock saq though and am probably going to write some of the stuff down on paper so it wont take me as long to complete it.

I gave up on life and became a hermit......

well I didnt hear anything after I sent of my personal statement so I though I hadnt got an offer. Then towards the end of November I got an e-mail about PPS, asking why I hadnt responded. Well I rung them up and it turns out that they had been emailing me but it wasnt coming through :s-smilie:, so they sent me my SAQ and I did it. I then heard nothing, and found out they day before my interview that I had it, because again my email wasnt working as it should.

interview went badly (though was a fun experience), and I learnt always to call up and check!

I'm having a big problem with my SAQ, I was filling in module marks when suddenly it kinda 'timed out' then all my subject information was lost, i was confused so i logged out and haven't been able to log back in, whenever i try to log in i get this message:


An error has occurred that has stopped this transaction from continuing.

No matching buffer found for level. (15,26)

When retrieving data for a page, a data value was retrieved for which there was no matching data value at a higher level scroll entry. (For example, at scroll level 2, a value of ABC was read in and scroll level 1 contained this higher level field but did not have a row with a key value of ABC.) This usually occurs because of an error in a database record or view; or because of improper deletion of values in a database. Correct the page definition or contact your system administrator.


Has anyone else had a similar problem? i'm really confused and worried at the moment since i can't even log in to complete it, i've sent an email about it but i'd have to wait until monday, any help would be very much appreciated.

Hey,
is it a problem if I cannot put all the topics I took (in one or two subjects) into the textbox because of the character limit?

Do we have to put retakes in the SAQ? I got an E in my C1 in january, then retook, do I have to list both?

Yes, and yes. You have to declare everything in the SAQ, even U grades.
