Computer Science - UCL

Anyone else still waiting on this? DC has booked for the STAT test next month but is starting to feel a little disenchanted after applying back in October.

[PandaPacer]

Yes! My DS has an Imperial offer and just waiting to do the test and hear from UCL before firming it. He wants to be in London is will put UCL as his insurance if he does not make the STEP requirement.

Good luck to your DS @PandaPacer

Is he also feeling a bit blindsided by what the test actually involves? There seems to be really limited info available about it

[CoffeeMugShot]

Bumping - just curious to hear if anyone knows of any offers coming out!

The timing of the whole business is bizarre, especially with UCL having switched to first come first served accom and opened it in March

[CoffeeMugShot]

Yes, the whole thing is odd. The timing is annoying re accommodation - DC will take UCL if offered, but budget is a real worry for us and I’m concerned that the “cheaper” options will be gone.

plus the STAT itself was deeply weird, and the fact it’s so expensive doesn’t seem very includive

i I wonder what their thinking is really!

[CoffeeMugShot]

Looks like the expected STAT results today have been moved back, so we continue to wait

[PandaPacer]

DS just got home from school and is questioning if he even wants to go now - their levels of disorganisation and obfuscation seem excessive!

[CoffeeMugShot]

It's really poor @PandaPacer isn't it? I don't know why they're making it so hard, and it doesn't really speak well of how they'd treat the students once in.
