History of art applicants thread for 2022

i’m stuck between ucl and courtauld but i think i prefer the course at ucl. plus i like that it’s not just hoa student there

same actually! im planning on firming st andrews and i think I'll insure ucl over courtauld tbh

did courtauld take a while to update it on ucas? i got the offer email from admissions a couple days ago but it still hasn’t been updated on ucas yet

Anyone still waiting to hear back from UCL? 😭

just firmed st andrews and insured ucl!! best of luck to all of you <33

I just firmed St. Andrews also. So excited !!

omg i swear youre the first person i see who actually ended up firming st. andrews too!!

Were u at the offer holders day on Saturday by any chance?!

Anyone still waiting to hear back from UCL? 😭

yeah I got rejected haha.. did you hear back yet??

Same 😭

Is there a group chat for people who have firmed UCL? Most other subjects seem to have one by now

Did anyone do the History of Art A-Level this week, if you did how did you find it

i did the history of art paper and in all honesty i don’t think it went very well. in retrospect, there was so much more i could have added in the visual analysis (i think i did particularly badly in the sculpture and building).

i did nature and identities. i think nature part A was quite good but my part B essay wasn’t as good, which is a shame because i normally rely on a good nature essay. i think my identities part A was okay, but my part B was not fantastic either. i’m normally really bad at predicting how i’ve done in exams, and i hope i’ve done better than what i think.

how did it go for you, and what did the rest of your class think? also i am not at all ready for paper 2. i do Renaissance and Modernism and i am honestly so confused by Renaissance, oh well!
