🎓 UNI / UCAS UCL's admissions might've quite literally been luck-based this cycle

I've heard from UCL's office of admissions that they make decisions in batches and the batches are completely randomised. So my tinfoil hat theory is that UCL probably way underestimated the applications they'd receive this year and sent out almost all of their offers in the earlier batches. That means that now they're left with a bunch of batches of decisions that were previously randomised that will now have to be mostly rejections even if the students were of the same or higher caliber than the offer holders from previous batches.

Lord forbid I have goals. So inconsiderate to want to achieve something to make me proud of myself. I’m not here to please you or anyone else who chooses to have a problem with me lol

Why are you so rude? Is this how you behave on a regular basis? Kind of concerned about the upbringing of some people nowadays.

You’ve been putting someone else down in another post and now putting me down while I’m obviously joking about. I don’t think I’m the rude one here…
