  99. # [17:38] * gsnedders feels like being silly and replying to Elliotte's email saying it's possible to be sucked into Charybdis and survive, but he knows it isn't a good thing to do on public-html
  100. # [17:42] <Philip> I'm not sure being sucked into Charybdis and surviving counts as a "good solution"
  101. # [17:44] <gsnedders> The survivability of being caught by Scylla is very, very low, though
  102. # [17:44] * Joins: smedero (smedero@192.223.6.251)
  103. # [17:46] <Philip> That's why the stated question was "which is least bad"
  104. # [17:47] <Philip> Odysseus largely survived getting past Scylla anway
  105. # [17:47] <gsnedders> How many crew members were caught, though?
  106. # [17:47] <gsnedders> Six?
  107. # [17:47] <Philip> That's what Wikipedia says :-)
  108. # [17:47] <gsnedders> There again, only Odysseus survived Charybdis
  109. # [17:47] <gsnedders> Philip: Cheat! :P
  110. # [17:48] <gsnedders> I was making the assumption that she caught one per head
  111. # [17:50] * Philip had to look there just to see who Scylla and Charybdis were :-(
  112. # [17:50] <gsnedders> heh.
  113. # [17:51] * gsnedders did classics last year
  114. # [17:52] * gsnedders remembers he intended on starting to do something about personal statement for UCAS form today
  115. # [17:55] <Philip> I read the Usborne Illustrated Guide to Greek Myths and Legends (if I remember correctly) about fifteen years ago, which is the limit of my classics education
  116. # [17:55] <gsnedders> Ah. So you probably can't write half an A4 page per question in a standard grade classics exam
  117. # [17:59] <Philip> It was exactly the same art style as http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51Z98BFGC5L._SS500_.jpg but I can't find any references to the right book :-(
  118. # [18:00] * Joins: aroben (aroben@71.58.57.150)
  119. # [18:01] <gsnedders> Philip: Seeming you're around, you got any advice whatsoever about writing a personal statement?
  120. # [18:06] * shepazu is now known as shepazu-lunch
  121. # [18:07] <Philip> gsnedders: They seem to be used partly/largely (not sure to what extent) for providing topics to discuss in interviews, so it's useful to mention various things that you'd be happy to talk about in much more detail if an interviewer asked about them
  122. # [18:07] <gsnedders> Philip: And for unis without interviews? :P
  123. # [18:07] <Philip> Oh, I don't really know anything about anywhere other than Cambridge :-p

  125. # [18:09] <gsnedders> How much can I say to sell myself, me wonders
  126. # [18:09] <Philip> Actually I had an interview at, uh, York? or somewhere like that, while I was looking at various options
  127. # [18:10] <Philip> but the others didn't want to bother seeing me at all
  128. # [18:10] <gsnedders> Most places don't have interviews nowadays
  129. # [18:12] <gsnedders> It's annoying that things start to actually matter now :P
  130. # [18:14] <Philip> I think several people told me that some universities (like, er, Cambridge, where acceptance is largely decided by members of the relevant departments) don't really care at all about well-roundedness, so there was no point mentioning how sporty and socially aware and demonstrating leadership qualities I was, which is good because I really wasn't
  131. # [18:16] * tlr is now known as tlr-off
  132. # [18:17] <gsnedders> Yeah, I can think of plenty I can write about computing, enough about physics, and a little bit about music
  133. # [18:17] <gsnedders> But that's about it.

  137. # [18:19] <gsnedders> Now, to hope what a girl in my year said is true and that my writing is beautiful :P
  138. # [18:21] <Philip> There's an unforunate conflict between trying to write nicely and trying to boast about as many things as possible within the word limit
  139. # [18:23] <gsnedders> And the context in which the girl said that had nothing to do with trying to boast about anything :P
