Still no letter. Grrr.
Surely all of you can contact your colleges now as it's been so long...?

Just got my rejection letter from Peterhouse, yay :frown:. Although the fact I wasn't really 'upset' reading it is probably a good sign :smile:

It was at first when offers and thing started coming through! It's a bit like a drawn out death though now...

It is getting too annoying now... I think I'm going to take a stab and e-mail them because I really can't be arsed to wait any longer.
How should I ask? Without sounding demanding or desperate...

Maybe you should say that you have friends who were pooled and had already received letters or information about their application but you hadn't and that you were wondering if it was still being processed or if a final decision had been made yet?
Got rejected!!

Thought I'd fuel some more nervous rumours...

*SAQ would let me log in
*Fat brown envelope

Good luck everyone whose still waiting and remember its not the ned of the world xxxx

There were about seven pooled from mine and all of them have been rejected... I am the only one left.

surely statistically that means you have a high chance of an offer!

as in there was 8 of us pooled and the school said based on experience 2 of us should statistically be pooled....so if bibliotheque had 7 people in his school....six rejected....surely hes quite likely to get an offer...am i right????

Yes but the sample size is not representative of the whole population, unless you assume that it is normally distributed...

I'm a girl!

But not everyone was applying for the same subject as me or will have the same interview notes as me . Since they don't take the school into account, the amount of people who are accepted or rejected from mine, won't affect my outcome.
