Moderator notice:
Please refrain from chatting and commenting in this thread. Let's try to keep the thread nice and clean so that it'll be easy for people to get an overview of what kinds of offers people have received. Thanks!

The thread for all us IBSers who have gotten offers to study in 2009. Post your offer with: the conditions, the predicted grades and the SAT scores (if you're applying to the US) you used to get an offer. I ask the PGs because students for 2010 can get a feel for their unis and see what unis require of them. If you haven't yet received your offers, you can post where you've applied and edit the post as the offers start rollin' in. -deissi

Very pleased by getting conditional offers from 4/5 universities in the UK! I knew I was going to get rejected by Oxford after my Mathematics Aptitude Test went to hell, so that didn't come as a surprise nor was I disappointed. Psyched about the Imperial offer! Imperial is definitely my top choice, and I'm working hard right now to try to make those 7s in Maths and Physics HL.
