Do all Cambridge applicants find out today?!


We're all supposed to (as in they were all posted yesterday as far as I'm aware), but there's a backlog with the post so not everyone has their letters yet :/

do you mind me asking your grades? ( i got rejected :frown: )


I got AABB at AS. I got a lovely D in my second Law paper, that's a personal highlight. I hate WJEC...

That's how we roll broski. :cool:

Now...the small matter of ascertaining who is going to the better university. I think that honour lies with me. :p:


Oxford is Cambridge's daddy. Literally. :tongue:

Read it and weep number two.
I mean, Cambridge is good, I mean, I guess.

But it's no Oxford :colonhash:

EDIT: Turns out, that link doesn't work. Whatever, scroll to any Oxford vs Cambridge thing, and you'll see Oxford is clearly more awesome in every way. There are some people that say it even has more letters in its name.

EDIT II: Also, I mean, I don't want to take ALL the credit, but clearly, my jumper/suit combo won them over.

Ahaha, I'm going to find a Guardian article I saw (rightly) claiming that Cambridge has knocked off Harvard as the best university in the world!

Though I will admit that my sharp jumper/suit combo did play a big part in it. :yep:

The best university in the world for Law is debatable.

The best university in the world for Jurisprudence is not :colonhash:

You can't handle it, don't worry, you can always do the BCL and bump that Cambridge degree up a few notches :awesome:

It only exists because some people couldn't hack it. Read a book. :rolleyes:

Enjoy the moment, just make sure you make that offer now :awesome:
Shouldn't be too hard with such a good motivator though.

Law is a social science.
Only Harvard is better.
But it's in the US, so it doesn't count :h:

But, seeing as Law at Oxford is a BA...
http://www.topuniversities.com/university-rankings/world-university-rankings/2010/subject-rankings/arts-humanities

Best in the world.
Boom.
