Statistically, more people get offers without further interviews than those who do having been interviewed.

Given my performance at Interview, I'd say it was HIGHLY unlikely that they will, i just need to keep the dream alive! Plus i was curious to know if i might have to go to other colleges if they wanted to see me, or if this one re-interview was the only shot i was going to get!


This might be of use to you and everyone else to answer your questions:

I also had another friend who was interview by two colleges, which both wanted her, and in the end they just phoned her and said "pick which one you want". Everyone's different :p:


Out of interest, which two colleges wanted her?
Fitzwilliam just emailed me saying they want to interview me for 2010 entry.
I want 2009 entry!
If I decline does that mean that I've been rejected?

If 2010 is what they're considering you for, and they know you applied for 2009, I think you've answered your own question.

It makes me sad how quick Fitzwilliam are contacting people, especially as they pooled me in the first place. :colonhash:
Does anyone know what the odds are like for a person in catagory P getting an offer/interview? I guess pretty slim.... :frown:

On the other hand I've now been officially pooled as I predicted. Probably under P too. :sigh:

is it good or bad to be pooled but not automatically - i have been pooled with 10 A*s but without 90% in top 3 subjects - does this mean i am more/less likely to get another interview/ an offer? thanks
anyone else got insane butterflies goin on?

Weeeell done :smile:
What subject was that for?
Has anyone been fished out for bio natsci yet? Or for any other colleges than fitz or homerton?
