Cambridge for Economic

Hi There - Planning to apply for economics. I have two questions:

1) is the chance of acceptance for Economics is higher for some colleges vs others ? for instance Trinity, Kings vs Claire , Huges Hall

2) Which colleges too far from the Economics Faculties that are not recommended term of travelling ?

Thanks in advance - Kris

1) You can Google a recent FOI request that shows the admission stats for Cambridge's BA Economics course by college for each of the last three years. The stats vary by college but it's probably not worth reading into them too much, some college let in 30% of applicants one year then 0% the next. Also, whether you get into Cambridge's economics course isn't related to what college you put down, they assess whether you're good enough, then allocate to colleges.

2) Use Google maps, don't be lazy.
