Princeton vs. Brown vs. Cambridge?

I'm find it difficult to decide, also how 'unconditional' are the offers from US unis (I'm predicted 4A*s, but if I get 4 As will I still get accepted?

Thanks

Congrats on these acceptances and the offer from Cam!

Personally would go for Princeton! It's a top 3 ivy and is considered very strong in the areas that it excels at.

And yeah, as long as you don't 'bomb' (i.e. get like Cs, and Ds) your exams, you should be alright.

Prince is right - and I would go for Princeton too in the blink of an eye.

But there's a lot of factors you should consider. Do you want to work in the US or the UK? Do you want the have a broader education or a very specialised one? Is the college experience important to you?

Also yes, you can go in to your exams very relaxed if you choose Princeton, but I would still obviously be trying to get the top grades :smile:

Thank you!

Yeah I'm definitely leaning that way it's comforting to know that it's basically an unconditional offer as well. Thank you for the advice!

If you come to Princeton you'll have the benefit of seeing me on campus. Definite bonus if you ask me.

But to answer your actual question, you'll be fine making As, even a B. But try your hardest anyway, it's always satisfying to end your secondary school career on a high note.

Feel free to ask me anything about P'ton if it will help you make a decision!

Loooooool. How are you finding it? Joined any eating clubs?

I remember speaking to you about your acceptance a while back.
