What makes organ scholars so special?

That's quite some certainty; especially considering that, as I'm sure you know, only around, on average, a quarter of applicants are accepted. And yes, that of course is where the potential problems lie: performing to one's optimum in the interview.

Though I just have a chip, fracture or break, on my shoulder as my grades weren't good enough for Oxbridge (AABa). I would like, if I do well enough in my initial degree, to do a Law degree there, however.

She means she thinks he'll get rejected, you know.

Ah, me and my assumptions; her and her corrosive wit.

He's so academic, he'll be fine.

Sorry, I'm done being a beast now. It's because I'm secretly in love with him, and very, very bored. Although, I don't think there was any irony - I said everything exactly as I meant it. .

Ah, but you said it with language which suggested you thought he'd get in; and that apparently counts. I did check on Wikipedia (as I always do before I say 'ironic')

Bah, you're right - although I suppose either inference would serve my original purpose of getting the OP to STFU about every little (greatly premature) detail of their application to complete four masters degrees at Oxbridge. Maybe that's the irony...

i hate organ scholars

Or maybe the irony is on us -- and he will get in.

Or maybe the irony is on us -- and he will get in.

At least then, half of Oxford will envy your Manchester place

Or maybe the irony is on us -- and he will get in.

Are you addressing it to me! Oh yeah!

Well no, it was about you though. Why, however, the Oxbridge obsession, mon ami?

And I'm not Oxbridge obsessed

They can apply for both cambridge and oxford for an undergraduate degree, while the rest of us has to suffer! Yes, even if we were allowed to apply for both we would have to make a descision in which uni we want to go, but I'm saying organ scholars have double the chances of going to the most elite unis in britain, whislt we have less of a chance than they do. It's so unfair! sorr, for going on a bit, but I don't know why people that can play an oversized instrument have the privledge in applying for oxbridge.

Mon ami? My _______? What does that mean?

And I'm not Oxbridge obsessed, but I have this weird feeling that if you won't got to Oxbridge, you won't get employed by employers in the City, or even worse, you are at a disadvantage when getting a job. I've heard that employers prefer graduates from Oxbridge that did a pure science 2:1 degree (e.g., chemistry, natural science) compared to someone who got a 1st in imperial college london in a pure science degree.

I feel compelled to break it to you that you most certainly are Oxbridge obsessed.

Also "mon ami" = "my friend"
