I'm applying for Philosophy and German and German at Brasenose and am expecting to have to wait QUITE a while to hear about interviews. I've gone into this whole application process not expecting anything to come of it at all, but it would be tough not to get an interview I must admit.

Any other international/EU applicants booking flights before they hear back? I'm unsure whether to book!

For people who said no, they've been rejected, do Oxford tell you why?

Considering I've only seen 1 person who has said they've been rejected but a number of "nos" in the poll, I wonder if people have voted no in the poll because they haven't heard yet, not because they've been rejected.

Hi! I've applied for French and Italian at Worcester. I thought the MLAT went okay apart from the fact that I didn't finish it..

Hi! Now admissions tests are done and the deadline for written work has passed, the wait begins for interview invitations. Feel free to introduce yourself, including what course you've applied for and which college, and how you feel your admissions test went. Also please post when you hear from Oxford/UCAS regarding interviews!! Good luck to everyone applying :smile:

I'll start. My names Miranda and i've applied to Univ to study History. I think the HAT went okay, it could have been better but i didn't come out feeling as though i'd ruined my chances.

Hi my name is Jamie. I am applying to Univ as well for History and Politics. HAT was boke. Lacked insight and breadth of answer. Although for an interview you really only have to be in the top half of applicants which if you think you have a chance you have to be confident of. You know you’re stressing when you vent your emotions on the Student Room

Yes and although it wasn’t that bad I felt like my answers weren’t accurate as I was speeding through the questions and couldn’t check them
