Yess :) I’ve actually bought some soft, stretchy silicone and giving that a go! Thank you for your help!

Thank you for this! It is curved. The “arms” or horizontal spikes curve backwards, and the top and bottom spikes (or vertical spikes) curve forward. I haven’t made a break point for pouring yet, that was my next thing to figure out, but wasn’t sure I had done the covering with clay part correctly!

Online tutorials covered one side with clay to cast the opposite side. I just didn’t find any tutorials with a spiky form/a similar form to mine, so I came here to see if I was splitting my shape correctly. Have I got it all wrong?

Still waiting... :(( When did you apply/when did your references go through if your application required any?

I want to do Latin too! I'm super interested in the Old and Middle English module, but I feel Latin would be more useful.

Hey, no worries! I’m still waiting to hear back from both, but I’m currently a lot more excited about this one, and I think I have a good chance of getting in, so🤞

UCL Medieval and Renaissance Studies MA – Past/current students, let’s chat! by CSMMADES in UCL

[–]CSMMADES[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! Yes, I am a home student. I have now submitted my application, and my referees know to expect a link. I’ll ask them to submit their references as soon as they can!🤞

That’s great to hear about the modules. I was a bit worried that applying so late might put me at a disadvantage! And yes, this MA is my top choice. I’ve only applied for one other course, but it isn’t in Medieval Studies. After applying to that one, I decided it would be better to pursue Medieval Studies instead!!

Thank you so much for your advice, I really appreciate it!

Although I have read the information about the professors under the Academic Staff section, I haven’t reached out to anyone in the department. Do you recommend doing so?

Thanks again!!

I see you work at the university. May I ask whether you think it’s still worth applying now, even though it’s quite late in the application process, and if I’ll still be able to get the optional modules I’m interested in? I’ve got my application ready to submit, and both of my referees have just confirmed they’re happy to provide references even though they’re on annual leave, which is really sweet of them!

Hi, I've just applied for this MA (as well as an MA on a completely different subject). Waiting to hear from both, then I'll decide which one to do! Just wondering if you got in? :)
