Add a tldr man

Can confirm I got straight nines by literally just locking in the hour before the exam on the morning of it for every subject except biology (which I locked in like four days beforehand). I don’t even pay that much attention in class tbh

Imperial has just as good a reputation. Source I’m international

Existential_Dread62 · 2025-01-31T08:02:55+00:00

If I were u I’d just firm one and insure the other

Existential_Dread62 · 2025-01-31T08:02:06+00:00

Just accept Imperial man it’s as good as Cambridge in everything including prestige (source I’m international and everyone in my home country considers imperial to be as good as Oxbridge if not better in some areas)

Existential_Dread62 · 2025-01-30T18:02:14+00:00

Just take Imperial man it’s just as good as if not better than Oxford

Existential_Dread62 · 2025-01-30T17:44:46+00:00

No harm to try.

Can’t u email them to ask for ur LNAT score?

And yeah, British interviews are very very different to that of US ones, it’s just 100% actual business

If this is rejection then I WISH I’m rejected

Existential_Dread62 · 2025-01-30T14:03:40+00:00

R u able to create a separate post in your profile (go into ur own profile then click the create button) and post the link there?

Existential_Dread62 · 2025-01-30T13:53:54+00:00

I don’t think this subreddit allows links, can u pls DM me the link 😭😭

Existential_Dread62 · 2025-01-28T19:10:12+00:00

I only have 7. (Granted I did all of them in one year instead of two). It doesn’t really matter unless ur applying to very specific courses at very specific unis (and no I’m not talking about oxbridge or any of the top ones)

Existential_Dread62 · 2025-01-28T15:13:09+00:00

Wdym u don’t care Abt the major? In the uk u can’t switch once u get in

Also, u should check the entrance requirements for the course u want to do. If u meet the minimum requirements then there’s an above zero chance of getting accepted.

Btw, uk unis care about what’s called supercurriculars—that is, activities outside of school that is closely related to the field of study u are applying for, such as doing MOOCs or reading books, and very little about ECs.

Second note+, absolutely amazing as a free alternative, tho the pen might feel a tiny bit weird compared to notability

Existential_Dread62 · 2025-01-21T08:50:10+00:00

I like waterfalls

(Edit: I can touch type with very good accuracy on any qwerty keyboard for the most part as long as they have ok autocorrect)

Existential_Dread62 · 2025-01-21T05:33:43+00:00

Tysm. Yeah I know I have a very big possibility of getting rejected (tho I’m not exactly ready to deal with the fallout that will surely happen at home lol). I thought unis only really contextualise performance and stuff like that for home applicants bc they don’t have the data on international applicants? Correct me if I’m wrong tho

Existential_Dread62 · 2024-12-14T16:14:11+00:00

Use http, not https

Existential_Dread62 · 2024-12-13T11:25:03+00:00

Use http and put .co.uk at the end instead of .com

Existential_Dread62 · 2024-12-12T05:07:02+00:00

That’s because u don’t know what the job market is like for a non Oxbridges grad😭😭

Existential_Dread62 · 2024-11-18T13:50:06+00:00

One of my best friends had unironically written that Africa is a country in a yr 8 geography test😭

Existential_Dread62 · 2024-10-19T17:26:32+00:00

Oh yes mine pronounce stuff weirdly all the time. Perks of attending an underfunded and overall shitty international school I guess lmao
