E-mail from King's

[ZoyaZ]

Has anyone received an e-mail from the school requesting clarification on what courses they took and what grades they received? Is this a good sign? Does it mean one is being considered for an interview?

I got an email sort of like that a few weeks ago but when I emailed them to ask for clarification about something, they told me they sent it by mistake.

I wouldn't necessarily say it's a good or bad thing. They can't consider you without knowing all the information so they want to make sure they have it all. I would be slightly concerned that they need to seek such clarification though... did you omit some information when you submitted your application?

I got an email 2 weeks back where they requested details of all my qualifications so far. Understandably so as I could not have attached my certificates anywhere on UCAS. I'm a graduate EU applicant from Finland so have different qualifications.

She emailed again asking for my high school transcript so I sent a more formal one. BUT she also asked if I had studied Chemistry and Biology to Advanced Level..what does this mean? I have studied both from 10th to 12th grade and to the highest level available in Alberta (Chem 30 and Bio 30). Will this suffice?

Hey ZoyaZ,
I emailed them before I applied and this was the answer I got:
"The term 'advanced' refers to a subject being taken until the final year and to the highest level possible."

Hey,
Thanks for your help Laura, I have been stressing out all day over this. It's good that someone was wise enough to check before applying.
