Original post by Oromis263
Well, it just told me what I already knew. :tongue: I was in the lowest 20% of interviewees when ranked for UMS. My average was 89% ish, so I decided to change that. A2 average was... better. :biggrin:

I decided to only reapply with 4A*s and a 97% A2 average. :smile:

It wasn't harrowing, as to clinch it I would have had to have done a lot. :tongue:


Okeydokes :tongue:
Sounds as if we were quite different ^_^ I have pretty good UMS under my belt - I think my interview and test were just horrific/not what they were looking for.
Annoyed I only had the one interview though, felt as though I could explain the test in a second, or at least just show off more :tongue: Maybe :confused:

congratulations! :smile:
just a quick question-- were you told beforehand that you were pooled from caius?


No, although the email from Christ's said "I write further to the recent letter which you will have received from Gonville and Caius College about your application for a Cambridge place." :biggrin:

Congratulations! :biggrin: I'm guessing I'd receive an email regarding my decision because it'd take more than a week for mail from the UK to reach my country (Malaysia). Apparently quite a lot of St. Catz applicants haven't heard a word from St. Catz yet.

Don't worry. Someone has phoned the Catz adm office and they said they will send out all email on Monday

Bio NatSci :smile: Yeah I was kinda the same, but I guess Cambridge is Cambridge haha. One of the girls I met at interview gave me the number of her friend who's at Murray Edwards so I've been texting her and she says being at all-girls college is fine, everyone is really friendly and you can just wander around in PJs with no makeup and there are still guys around/that you meet out of college so I guess I'm okay with it.

Wow you live in Malaysia, I'm so jealous! I know I've heard, when I tried to contact them over previous issues they took a few weeks to reply so their admissions staff aren't fantastically fast!

Think I read 25 for natural sciences - split between physical and biological.

I know, been having a stalk of their website and that looks awesome! originally applied to Emma where the cooking facilities are literally a microwave haha. I was such an incoherent mess when the woman phoned me up :colondollar:

Haha, I know I live with 2 brothers atm, although they're both younger. And because I'm doing sciencey/mathsy subjects there tends to be more guys in my classes at school, but oh well! My little brother told me I wasn't gonna get a boyfriend until I was 25, the little charmer :P

I guess, although since it's all the sciences people start to branch out/specialise :smile: Land economy sounds really unique - what kind of thing did you apply for elsewhere?
does anyone else keep re-reading the acceptance letter, to make sure it wasn't just a dream :smile:
