gollark: I've got a bunch of comparison things and university websites open among my 600 random browser tabs.
gollark: I have a weird thing with overresearching random stuff in advance but then procrastinating on actually important decisions/things, so yes.
gollark: I think they have to use the same application timings and suffer similar weirdness with prediction, since most undergraduate applications go through one central system.
gollark: It's kind of stupid but cannot practically be changed now.
gollark: Anyway, universities just have to base it on predicted grades, past grades, and a "personal statement" and "reference". So you get an "offer", usually saying "if you get X grades you can go to this university", and have to hope that you match that in the exams.
