I got a similar call. But she asked me whether I was confident with my English. I guess she was trying to determine whether I should take a pre english course. She said she called all the international applicants.

How did it go for you?

How did you guys rate yourself on English Speaking / Writing & Reading skills? I am an international applicant and have not received that call. So wondering if it has got to do with the rating I gave myself in the application form. ( I rated myself full proficient (4) )

Is it possible that they call ALL admits tomorrow? They would have to call aprox. 1 per minute!

Any idea whether the round 1 admit emails go out on the official decision date or one day before?

I analysed the R1 posts and noticed that notifications went out a day before the decision date at around 6:30 PM London time. So lets wait for another 5 hours...

Finally did not escape from the sudden cold call from the school to test my English just like the one Antifer had yesterday.

Casual chat. Confidence in English, whether English is daily used, hobbies, whether been London before, idea about London, London Olympics. Lasted 6:30 mins

Told me the result will be out tomorrow.

I'm in China

No call received. I think I'm dinged. :(

Best luck for all of you!

Did they say they are calling all the international applicants? I am based in India and haven't got a call either. Should I assume a dinge?

Good to luck to all, anyway!!
