Oxford BCL and Cambridge LLM Applicants 2009


Cedric

Does it have anything to do with how early your application was submitted? I think someone had suggested that if you had gotten your application in as soon as applications were open you would be considered first?



Seems to be irrelevant. A German applicant said on this forum he applied on Dec, 1st :) and he was accepted last week !

The general 'consensus' is that is based on merit. Although it could be on hair colour too... who knows what criteria they have..:)

I don't think too much can be inferred from the posts on here - my partner and I were both accepted a few days ago and we haven't been near the internet. We know of several people who've been accepted - including a guy from India - and as far as I can tell they haven't posted on here (though probably difficult to really tell!)

Congratulations to those who've been accepted ... and good luck to those still waiting ... my fingers are crossed for you!

Congrats JCL ! Where are you from if I may ask?

Jag will not be happy when he sees an Indian has been accepted.

did someone say that the BGS was meeting today to update Camsis?.. If they did, for those who were accepted, you will then be able to see your offer conditions and even accept them at prima facie level (i.e. accept to meet conditions in order to get a place on the LLM).

I haven't heard of any Indian being accepted either. Not in my circle atleast.

Yes, a pretty large circle, as you are aware. How does one decide who the number one student is? But you may be right "someone" from NLS might have got in.....

No, I said so because the No. 1 student from NLS has got the Rhodes Scholarship alongwith a student from GLC, Mumbai. They will walk into Oxford. I don't think they have even applied to Cam.

jags, don't worry. there are still many more offers from cambridge yet to be made. and then comes the waiting for oxford offers as well....hence, keep your patience at the highest level, things have just started to heat up :)
as for me, I decided not to check my email for the next couple of days...I need a vacation from all of this stress. que sera, sera...whatever will be, will be. :)

I hope the wish is true but practically, we are in for a long wait... Even if our applications were considered last week and yesterday, we should expect to hear only around 7-8th March and thereafter...

If it's early March that's still alright though. I've heard of people being accepted in June :S

You sure my application was also considered last week and yesterday or you are only assuming that?
