yii yann Posted July 6, 2014 Report Share Posted July 6, 2014 Hi guys! As I'm typing this, you're all receiving your results. Some will be elated, some will be devastated, some will be relieved, and some will not know today is results day. I'm from Singapore, and will be going to Oxford (Queens' College) this October, and wanted to know if anyone else is going to Oxford. It's a totally new country for me (apart from a particular sandwich shop...I practically memorized my way there). So, it'd be really great if I got to meet some, in a way, familiar faces there. I'm hoping we could maybe get a little group going on, and meet there whenever the reporting day is. At least we'll know some people before we're even there! So yeah, please do post here if you're going to Oxford this year. Also, as I read through this post again, I get the sense that it may sound vaguely elitist. It's really not, it's just that there's no point doing this if you're going to like, St Andrew's or something. 1 Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What you saying about St. Andrews That it's in Scotland, and so the whole "let's meet up so we aren't alone during the start of university" thing isn't exactly going to work out . I picked St Andrew's because its the furthest university from Oxford that I know, and I wasn't too sure how to spell Edinburgh (googled it this time!)

Over at the student room there were at least 4 IB folks going to Oxford. For the record, Aberdeen is the furthest away I'd imagine, Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
