Oxbridge applications 2023 mutual support thread

[Riverpebble]

A new, friendly thread.

I didn’t know that about the TSA results @redtulip12 . @Riverpebble Last years tracker suggests interviews for the subject DD has applied for start coming in around 25th
It makes it all feel more nervy for them. They have already invested so much in working hard on PS, practising TSA and now interviews. Wish they could just give them all offers!

@Letitgoagain I didn't realise maths was after offers were given - good luck to your DS. Definitely is stressful this process, my DS received his 2nd offer this evening from Manchester after only being interviewed yesterday- some universities seem to have a quick turnaround it seems compared to others. Think it'll be a long waiting game for his other 3 choices now.

My DS just shared this link with me, shame it doesn't apply to our children this time round but I'm hoping it'll be less stressful when my middle DS applies in 2 years time if he chooses these courses.

It's exciting to hear that the offers are coming in for everyone! DS has received an email inviting him to an assessment and two interviews for Cambridge.

Good luck for all the interviews and very exciting to hear about all the offers.

Over the moon. My daughter now has unconditionals from Glasgow,Edinburgh, St Andrew's and her interview for Cambridge.

A very happy household ! I'm loving hearing everyone's good news x

Congratulations @beachcitygirl what a fab position to be in!

DD has an interview at O! Not sure when, the email was to tell her she was shortlisted.

That's fantastic @BruceIsACake - is this the first Oxford interview? What subject is this for?

Biochemistry. She applied to Christ Church and has an interview there with a 2nd at Merton.

St Hilda's have sent out interview offers for Music and Biochemistry and my DS has an interview for Music.

Another interview for music here. St Peter's. A very happy DS and a very nervous mum.

My son has been given as assessment date for classics at C but no mention of an interview except to ‘keep a copy of his assessment as it may be discussed at interview’. Is it possible to have an assessment and then wait to see if they will interview?

So exciting to see these interviews coming through! Well done everyone

Hi. Any Oxford Physics interviews yet?

We won’t know until 30th Nov at the earliest @whiteroseredrose

Well, they say from Monday 28th…..but I’m thinking the wed as the results seem to have started filtering out the couple of days after what they’ve said in the past two years.

@OnePlusOneEquals Fingers crossed for another week then.

Fingers crossed it goes quickly! @whiteroseredrose I fear it will drag a tad. I’m still telling myself it’ll be wed 30th - so if any earlier it’ll be a bonus.

Hello, could anyone answer a question for me please. My son has the HAA for Cambridge this week. He was hoping to be able to print the text so he may make planning notes on it, but is unsure if the system will allow it to be printed. Random question but does anyone know? Thank you.

Just got interview for Pembroke HSPS. Phew :)

Congratulations Hertsessex

Congratulations to your DS, well done.

Thanks @sparkles18 you too. Trying not to think about it. School being really supportive which is great.

An interview for Chemistry at O here. We're not sure which college as the college he applied to has passed him on. I think this means he's interviewable and we're all v chuffed. If he gets a place his college will be the best college. That's how these things tend to work 😊
