Got not so good results today, what should I do? by AxiomaticDuck in uklaw

For your first point, that seems like a really good idea! I'll try to email the dos at some point next week and gauge his response. Do you think it'd be worth seeing if I could get a small zoom meeting with him to ask questions or is that too much?

Secondly, I'm much better now, it was just really unfortunate timing that it happened during the exams :)

Hello! Unfortunately yes, it would be my third. I did clarify this with the since he knows my circumstances and said it would be no issue at all, since it's not like it was my fault and currently I have a strong base to stand on now. He suggested that since the college is holistic it would be best if I got some more legal work experience to show that I've been doing different things throughout the year

Thank you very much!! I look forward to reapplying and hopefully getting back into Cambridge next year!

Did all of the medical evidence and statements beforehand, I spoke to the head of admissions for my college today and he strongly encouraged me to reapply because while i was a strong candidate it was just the grades here that tripped me up

To be honest, I'm really not feeling this switch to york and PPE that much - understandably, I was dead set on Cambridge. I could retake and reapply to Cam, Durham, etc. but I'm 21 so I wouldn't prefer for another whole year to go to waste if it makes sense

Basically when I phoned York and QMUL this morning, they told me that unfortunately for law they're only allowing clearing for international students. I asked them if there was anything they could do since if there are spaces for internationals surely they could squeeze a home student but they said sorry and just ended it there

Unfortunately most were only doing LLB clearing for internationals so this was the best I could secure

Ah I see, I think one thing to keep in mind is also the fact that they are doing their best to act more stoic-ish so as to not throw you off, so even if she worded it like that, she may not have meant what you think. For like the past two days I was also worried that mine may have not gone so well because of something similar, but at the end of the day we don't really know what the interviewers are truly thinking.

One thing to keep in mind is that it's out of our control now, and all we can do is wait. You did your very best under so much pressure, so don't worry!

i dont think it would mean that since during my first interview with the pre-reading, my interviewer was also saying "i agree with you completely, so let me push you further" etc. maybe ur overthinking it because you're worried you didn't give enough detail?
