haha i didnt get a second round offer to nossal macrob was my lower preference... im so confused rn because i dont understand how i got into macrob... one of my friends got into nossal via second round offers and she did get into any other school in the first round. but i got into suzzane cory first round but only got a pd for nossal... idk how this whole thing works tbh
I know that when there are two or more offers for you, you only receive one - the higher preference one, and you would have no knowledge of other offers you were entitled to.
So you are saying you only got a lower preference offer, and it was macrob. Interesting.
More girls put Nossal ahead of macrob? Or more available places for girls at macrob? I dont know. I think I got it: As you did not make macrob / Nossal straightaway (in first round), so it depended on how many openings in 2nd round for each school. There were less 2nd round Nossal places for girls than macrob, and you made macrob but not Nossal in this circumstance. You are still likely to get an offer through Nossal's PD. You may still have the options.
For the first round offers, macrob's cutoff is likely to be higher than Nossal. But for late offers, it all depends on how many openings per gender.
