Ermm, basically I had applied for something totally different so emailed a new ps that they didnt get so I was like, I emailed it and was told it would be passed on so she said oh, ill ask if she take another look at it. Just ask for feedback and what can be improved and if there is anychance they could reconsider you application, just be blunt, at least they'll see you want it.

I've already emailed them and i didnt mention anything about reconsidering, doubt it would of done anything anyways, thanks for the info though :smile:

Yep, basically they said my application was strong, but not strong enough (due to several hundred applicants being predicted 4 or more A's) to get an interview even though someone on here got an interview with two U's in maths and physics at AS-level (no offence to that person), my referee says imperial dont like kids from public schools and from up north ( I think that bit was a joke) but that would be starting a whole new debate I suppose.

Note: The girl who got two U's is being awkward :tongue:. She means they were both undeclared, not that she got ungraded in them and told Imperial that :yep: .

No, I literally had a U at A2 Physics and a U at A2 Maths, but you can't declare Us on UCAS, so it went on my reference, and I just had massive gaps :/

Yeah state.

Yeah state.

They're having problems getting more state pupils and they would have snapped your arm off if they had thought you were good enough
