Hello!

We only get them for applicants in subjects where we use the TMUA, so Computer Science and Economics. I'm not aware of us getting them for mathematicians - I've never received them in the past. They come to us in subject batches (i.e. we get all the Economics one together and all the Computer Science ones together) so I'm not sure where applicants for othewr subjects would fit into that. Even if we were to receive them, we wouldn't take them into account. Not every Maths applicant takes the TMUA, so it wouldn't be fair to mark down someone who took it and did less well, or favour someone who did brilliantly.

Hope this helps!

Brilliant, thanks, this is what I had originally assumed would happen and then wondered when I saw the results go across automatically. You’ve put my mind at rest!

We haven't, no.

Good afternoon, please could you kindly advise whether the colleges have received the NSAA results as yet?!
Thank you.

We've received them in the last hour. We'll be processing them in the coming days, but the likelihood of interview invitations being sent this week is vanishingly small.

Thank you so much. It is really very helpful to have some indication. Best wishes.
Hi. Just came across this thread - great idea. Do you know if the colleges have received the ENGAA scores yet? Thank you.

You can check the interview spreadsheet to see if any have been reported
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1keQYMs8bbZhrZQ7hrlcvV25h1Q-S6FaMSeL6Co4PuuM/edit?usp=sharing

hang in there - my daughter's college was (and continues to be) slow but they get there
One History on the spreadsheet but no HPol, however small numbers for his course so not sure spreadsheet will help but will keep watching. Fingers crossed.
Phew…interview invite email for our daughter arrived this afternoon

So glad that stage of the process is over

Congratulations to her. It’s a relief to have some certainty, isn’t it?

Thank you, the waiting is horrible so I do hope you hear soon

Which college has your child applied to?
Hi, is anyone here waiting for Churchill to send out interview letters for natural sciences?

Fitzwilliam. Thank you!
My daughter has received an offer for interview for natsci at Pembroke but has only one interview. Her friends at other colleges have two or three for natsci. Is one interview unusual? Just interested!
Joining in! My daughter had her Assessment yesterday and interviews scheduled for 7th Dec.
Looking at the spreadsheet there’s not been much maths action so far. Hoping these might start some time soon!
