What are the chances I get the offer from Imperial for Computing?

you think? I'm really stressing over this because I've heard that the last interview date for Imperial is like end of feb / start of march meaning they probably have to inform people within the next week and the later it goes on without an invite, it feels closer to a rejection!

I wore to Imperial and they said they were going to do the last admission test this coming week and then process all the remaining applicants. They probably got the top people they wanted and now is down to the last places I think.

The interview website only says "We USUALLY host interviews between November and February" which means that they could extend this time period if the applicant pool is particularly big this year. You still have another 18 days so don't worry (and maybe even longer).

Also, the fact that you haven't been rejected yet suggests to me that you show merit on your application but not enough to give you an interview straight off the bat. I think that they will start to look at such applications round about now since @UniVerse3 mentioned that the last admissions test will be hosted next week and so there won't be too many applicants left to look at.

I had my admission February 5th Monday, how long do you think I could expect for getting an interview and when will they let me know if I get an interview or got rejected?

I assume that the interview will be online otherwise they will have to give you a two week notice to invite to interview at the very least (to book travel etc.) for an in-person interview. For an online interview, I reckon they would give you at the absolute tops a week's notice.

As for rejections, who knows? I mean the November to Feb window is just a target for them to do interviews and they could keep going with interviews into March but it's hard to say because we don't know the number of applicants that are still being processed and the number of places that are still available.

I think though that they will stick to their word and start handing out more rejections in March.

According to this website from Imperial, the last (in-person?) interview day is 28 February 2024 for this cycle. They're also generally not great with giving notice in advance for invites. From what I've heard, invites can come from 2 weeks in advance up to 6 days or so in advance of the day. Not to say these are the only possibilities though. Good luck all!

I got almost 3 weeks lol....got told on 10/11 for interview on 29/11.

That’s generous haha, I was told on 1/11 for an interview on 8/11 😂 - train prices were unfun

Haha yikes! A week is literally nothing but it's done now! I mean, my prices weren't either....I think we spent about £200 from Leeds to get there (which might be why I got a bit more time in order to organise travel plans).

Have you been preparing for STEP? If so how? What are your requirements as part of the offer?

Oh dear

STEP offer is 2 in paper 2. Preparing by doing STEP 2&3 past papers as often as possible. STEP 1 as well if I feel like a warm up. Isolated questions from the database if I don’t have enough time for a full paper. How about you?

I've just been doing the STEP papers as well....Trying to find more stuff to do. How long have you been preparing for?

You?

Do u know when is the last day for them to send in person interview invites for home applicants as I done my test on 27/11 and I haven’t heard back from them yet. Also, the website says that if u pass the online cs test, u will get an interview somewhere, idk if it only applies to contextuals or no. But, for the online cs test, what is the pass mark out of 10, I’m so confused. I reckon I only got 6-7 questions right out of 10 but who knows. It’s been a long wait lmao

And someone please tell me, for like each score on the admissions test from 10/10 to maybe 4 or 5/10, each score, the probability of getting an interview cos someone said that if u get 7/10, 60% chance of interview, but then what about 6/10 or smth? Apologi s for the questions but if u can, pls tell me? So much stress right now

Is there any 2022/23 data in terms of imperial computing online test, interview and application stats, cos the latest I saw is 2021/22, with 20.5% of applicants getting interviews with 6/10 I think idk
