Yeah I read the acceptance rate for German at Oxford was around 36% last year but in recent years one in every two applicants has been accepted. My ACT score is a few points less than their minimum requirements but I made a 5 on my AP German exam and even won a scholarship to study abroad in Germany last year. I have the same mindset as you though, and am not expecting to get in. I just want to see what happens lol. I’m applying to St Hilda’s because they have the most foreign language students and pool the most students. What college did you apply to, or did you submit an open app?
