Just looked on the website, it says:

All 29 Colleges that accept undergraduate students are open at certain times during the days for you to find out more about College life
staff and current students are on hand all day to answer any questions about studying at Cambridge and the application procedure.
Please note that many Colleges and departments hold their own open days on these dates. Programmes for all events on these days are co-ordinated so that you are able to make the most of the opportunities available.


I think it should be fine to just pitch up...

Na, I'm working on the hypothesis that geeks don't really take physics all that much, normally computer science or engineering :P (I can dream :biggrin: ) since all the physicists I've met have been semi-normal (but completely mad :wink: )

See you tomorrow then :P I'll be the one in the canteen in a white shirt talking to the REAL scientists :rolleyes: .

..or just wandering around the buildings because the machine hasn't been working for the past three days :s-smilie:

Visited Sydney Sussex for a short bit.
Not as good as expected, but information and motivation given was certainly useful!
I went to St. John's, and walked round to look at some of the other colleges. The English talk at St John's was interesting, although I felt I was very different from some of the other people there. I loved the city of Cambridge though, it's beautiful.
I stayed over at Caius on thursday night, it was my first time in cambridge too :biggrin:.

Amazing place, really enjoyed my time...somehow I feel it isn't really 'me' though...

Arghh I've fallen in love with the most competitive colleges!

I don't know if today helped or just confused the issue. I had a great day, anyway...
which ones?

i remember from when i planned to apply that statistically, college popularity has little effect on odds of gaining an offer. i guess number of places for your subject probably would though.
The amount of contradicting information they all seem to give is a little offputting too though..

Yay for contradicting information :biggrin:. I love the city of Cambridge, only problem is I live literally 20mins driving from there, so if I managed to get in lord knows how I would keep my parents away :P
