[QUOTE="D, post: 26326, member: 540"] I agree with the advice given here [USER=4857]@S321[/USER]. Next year I'd definitely take up the advice from [USER=2130]@Camilla[/USER] regarding the number of apps. Sometimes, applications do get rejected (as [USER=1]@Jaysen[/USER] said) for baffling reasons. I still cannot tell you why my A&O app got rejected this year! I'd also ensure you have some other people look over the apps to see if they can make improvements. I know you say you are "predicted" a 2:2, but, given that we're near the end of the cycle, is there any way you can put some additional focus on your academics to try and scrape that 2:1? It will make a huge difference to your app's. If this is the career for you, I'd even consider going to the lengths of private tutoring etc to try and bump that grade up. It'll all pay for itself in the long run. I have looked at apps for people who have had a tough time this cycle and offered some advice. Let me know if you'd like me to look over an app! [/QUOTE]
