Nervous as I loved the uni! Even have a hoodie from there haha which I bought from the university shop my cousin took me to. Just want an interview, that's all I'm asking. Well, and preferably, an offer after that!

my offer was actually ABB with an A in chemistry, I got AAB but with a B in chemistry lol. I thought the standard offer for physics is AAA? I don't think Imperial actually gives out lower offers for AH takers.. .but I could be wrong! Anyway, best of luck with your application! I think you should have no problem with getting an offer - I applied with much, much lower Higher grades than you (albeit for a different subject). :smile:

You're right, according to UCAS Imperial want AAA for physics! Ah well. That was great of Imperial to reconsider you. :biggrin:
And thanks! I loved the uni when I went to visit so I'm pretty nervous.

Well, I had an offer last year from Mech. Eng which I turned down... although I did achieve what they asked for for Mech Eng. Let's see what they say this year for Chem Eng.

For some departments it's like that. But others take the interview quite seriously; with civil you have to do some fluid mechanics experiments and you're questioned about them later.

Depends on your reference, PS and potential interview I'd guess.. Similiar position to mine, got an A in chem/physics/computing but just missed out on an A in maths and got a B in my other maths modules overall..

Retaking C1-C3 in January, as I know I can do much better than I did.. So I guess if I don't get an offer from any of my top 3 I'll just re-apply next year..
