I have my Phys NatSci interviews on the 8th but I'm arriving tomorrow and staying overnight. I'm so unbelievably nervous...


Another phys NatSci yay! :biggrin: Good luck! I had mine last week and the students there were good at being reassuring XD

Good luck :smile: it'll be over before you know it - if it's meant to be, it's meant to be. There's nothing you can do now to affect the outcome, so que sera sera and I'm sure you'll be fantastic! College during interviews is actually surprisingly chill, believe it or not...

I have my law test on Tuesday 6th, and my interviews are Wednesday 7th!

How is everybody feeling? Any other law applicants?


Same! Law Test on the 6th and Interviews I’m the 7th. Any idea if the last one is a general one? x
Are there any Classics applicants? I'm desperate about why I haven't heard anything from Pembroke yet.😂

The post you're quoting is from last year's intake :P

Don't worry about it, different subjects take (sometimes significantly) different lengths of time to respond to applicants. That others have heard back about interviews before you is in absolutely no way connected to the likely outcome of your application

Pembroke did say that they'll give out interview calls from the second week of November. Does that mean they're still giving out interview calls in the third week of November?

I heard about mine on November 25th back when I applied, so quite possibly (I wasn't even given a date range by college for hearing back, just that if I hadn't heard by December 2nd I should ring them).

If you're concerned about it, give them a call tomorrow morning (or email them). But honestly I wouldn't worry about it yet!

Oh thanks!😊
I’ve submitted the form for Pembroke accommodation about a month ago, with a preference for a modern room in Foundress Court as I was under the impression that the vast majority of freshers were there and it was more sociable.

However, I would really like an old room! What’s the atmosphere like in New Court/Orchard/Red Buildings?

Am I better off sticking with Foundress to be with more people?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
