St. Andrews Applicants 2009 (deferred 2010)

rOYAL.

I hope so!
Thank you!
I have also applied to Warwick - MORSE, UCL - Statistics, Economics and Finance, and Cass - Investment & Financial Risk Management + Banking & International Finance.

I don't have any decision yet... but I've sent off my UCAS form just a week ago :wink:

Yeah Warwick is great! I really loved the campus when I visited it!
Which of your choices is your top choice?

Reply 581

rOYAL.

St Andrews. sometimes I think I would enjoy Cass even more because of the city... But their course does not sound as "academic" :wink:

If I don't make it into St A I really won't know where to go (provided I got offers the other unis). Warwick has a great campus + great course, Cass is in London + great course but none of my chosen courses are really comparable... UCL was rather a 'let's choose another course with 'finance' in from a prestigious uni' - choice.

what are your other choices?

I applied to LSE, Warwick, Durham, St Andrews and York.
Have you allready taken STEP and an english proficiency test?

rOYAL.

No, neither of them.
When I contacted the unis, none mentioned an English test as an entry requirement, asked for 12 in the Abitur instead. And Warwick told me they'd ask a minimum of 13 in Maths, but didn't mention STEP. Well, registration opens on 2nd March for STEP so there will be plenty of time if they want me to do a paper :wink:

My friend got an offer for Biology there for AAB and she didnt even have an interview, her AS-grades are worse than mine maybe it was due to her doing a language at AS i dont know. I also emailed the admissions tutor (in november), but i still haven't received a reply the snobby-nosed **************** But anyway im still waiting for a reply frm St A's!

I don't think AS grades have much to do with it its your predicted grades that count. I didn't do too well in my AS's either but i had the good combination of Maths, Biology and Chemistry with Physics AS.

Actually 2 out of the 4 study units are the same as Biology and 3 out of the 4 are actually nothing to do with humans at all...only the unit im starting now is all about the human body, its a bit misconceiving isn't it?

Yeah, I suppose the members of the kingdom that are fundamental to every one of the planet's ecosystems, all but a few isolated exceptions, are quite interesting. :wink:

Bacteria and fungi even more so.

Hello everybody! I have applyed to St. Andrews as early as the 8th of Sep and my course is International Relations. And I am still waiting.........
I am from Bulgaria, I study at the American College of Sofia, and it seems to me as if there might be a problem with the type of my qualifications (Bulgarian High School Diploma) and that is why, I think, there is still no reply. I wondered if there are other Bulgarians studying at SA that applyed having similar qualifications.
As in terms of other offers, Nottingham offered me a place and Cambridge rejected my application.

Congratulations to all that already have their 1st choices or at least are satisfied by the results of their applications.
