Swansea 2012 GEP applicants

So what's the verdict... Do we reckon most waiting list offers have gone out and a few more may trickle out if any on the reserve list reject their offer?

It's quite possible, Amy_Kitch. Jane said they were waiting for people to get back to them.

Completely underestimated it this year and didnt put enough work in so decided retaking it isnt going to make anything worse.
When people are calling Jane are you actually asking where you are on the list? This stalemate is horrible!!

But if you do the test in the same yr as application, the best mark gets sent out of the two to the university right? I just want to make sure as that's what I understand from the acer website and from what Joanna2012 had said.

Ah crap, and I don't imagine many on the reserve list are going to turn down places... Owww

@chimichanga - That's right, the best of the two scores gets sent to the universities.

@Amy_Kitch - We don't know anything for sure yet. The other thing that's worth keeping in mind is the conditional offers that have gone out. Who says those people are going to actually get their predicted grades?

No updates, anyone?

**Amy_Kitch** · 22-05-2012, 02:47 PM

No

I'm thinking the worst now can't see many if any more offers still going out :/

I wonder if they will start rejecting people from the waiting list bottom up? It would be so handy to know our positions!

**Joanna2012** · 22-05-2012, 05:21 PM

There is a UCAS deadline on 7th June for people to reply to their offers, although surely people will have replied by now... but you never know, they might still be waiting to hear from a few people. And it's possible one or two won't meet a conditional offer of a 2.1

They've already rejected everyone through UCAS, so the rest of us on the reserve list will just be left waiting all summer

probably with no news!

It's not unheard of for someone to be offered a place a couple of weeks before the course starts too!

If I was stuck between two offers (I can only dream!), I would probably leave it to the deadline which would force me to make a decision. It's another case of wait and see - but for a seemingly indefinite period of time!
