heh, I'll join the club of nervous-about-tomorrow then ^^ Are people going to go straight to the interview or lounge around in the Common room of the Forbes Mellon Library? My first interview is in the oriental studies faculty but as I'll be arriving an hour early to get my bearings, might pop in just to ask for directions for my second interview (05, Mem Court anyone? is that a room, a floor?? :confused:

)

O5 is a room. It's on O staircase, number 5. Go in the main entrance of Mem Court, turn right and it's the first staircase on the right. It should be labelled etc and the porters and random student helpers will be around to help you.

I have two 25 minute interviews for Law at Clare on the 5th. The letter also mentioned a 90 minute test, does anybody know what that involves?

Well, good luck to you all!

I've been remembered? How flattering! Thanks so much! :biggrin:

Yeah, figured the colleges would be using first class post.... Hm, I suppose we can almost officially call ourselves Clare-ites! :smile:

Well done on your offer too! MML person, yay! Will you be reading French and German?

I see your location is Rugby - do you go to Rugby school? I know a girl who goes there. </random>

LOL! OK then, I'm sorry I asked. :p:

I just thought I'd ask as my friend is also a Cambridge applicant.

Yes, making an AEA part of an offer would be mean! I'm taking one purely because I know I'm not going to get an A in French unless I have a really nice examiner, and I'll need something to prove I'm not totally useless on A-level results day... Not that I have anything against French. Very nice language. :smile:

I never had the opportunity of studying German. :frown:

Make sure you keep the main decisions discussion thread busy though, don't want to split up the population too much :wink:

Hey, any successful Natsci applicants out there?
Also, I just wanted to see if the boy who was waiting outside when I came out of both my interviews and who also did the TSA at the same time as me (due to a clash, we did it late afternoon) got in. Either way, I'm sorry for not speaking to you. I was going to say hello at some point but I was too nervous with interviews to venture into social interaction!
