Has anyone been to a Cambridge College Open day?
Hello everyone,
I've booked a place on the Newnham College Cambridge open day this Wednesday the 4th July and I was looking forward to it until I looked at the programme and saw that part of the day was spent doing 'workshops', one on the Cambridge interview and a second on the application process and personal statements. I was just wondering if anyone had done one of these college workshops and could tell me what they entail because I'm kind of nervous as I'm going by myself :P
Thanks very much for any replies in advance! -

It's not a test of your abilities. I think it's just to help you as much as possible. I don't think they ask you to do much - I reckon it's just someone talking at the front and just briefing you
I also encourage you to go to as many other colleges for tours on the Open Days as possible - it'll help you make an informed decision!
Have fun!
