Downing seems to have a very small proportion of Mathmos, averagely about 4-5 Mathmos in the first year, compared with the nearly 100 strong Natsci intake and those of other subjects. Of course, Downing is more famed for medicine and law.
Some good reasons to apply Mathematics at Downing College: 1.)Standard STEP offer is grade 1 and 2 in STEP II and III in any order. This is rather reasonable and not so harsh compared with grade 1 and 1 offer from many other colleges. 2.)Rather near to first year lectures. 3.)

More importantly, there's also a Pizza Express two doors down from college and Zizzi's do £5.30 takeaway pizzas (cheaper than Pizza Hut and Pizza Express)...not of course that some of us eat far too much pizza... Kyle
4.)For international students, you're eligible for the very prestigious and competitive Jardine Scholarship. (Eligible for Downing, Magdalene and Trinity offer-holders)

I think that number is correct as regards mathmos, however this year's intake of natscis was only 22 (I think...hopefully I'm not forgetting anyone). We do have a lot of medics too...somewhere around 15-18 and we do have a reputation for good medics and good lawyers.

Ahh.. silly me 100+ is the total number of applicants for natsci. Thanks for the correction. But the idea is that lawyers, medics and natscis comprised half (47.2%) of the first year undergraduate population in Downing, with 1/5 of Downingites being a natsci.
I'm thinking Downing for Eco, did work experience there a couple of years ago and really loved the place, let's have a look at the open day in September!
