Unconditional MML Christ's. Any other MML'ers/Christ's people?

Hi guys! I've got an offer for Natsci at Gonville and Caius! Anyone else? Emma

(I can PM you my academic stuff if you want but it's really boring, wouldn't recommend it )

Axil? I think I want to ask.

Yes m411, it is a little annoying. Hopefully I'll see you there

indeed

A*A in M, FM and A*A in Chemistry, Phys. (In any order). Which is decent I think.

Still can't believe it lol. I'm still considering STEP I just because FM is boring... But that A* is my priority.

I was just wondering : I've got an offer of A*AA to study medicine at Caius, and it doesn't specify in which subjects. However I finish my A2 maths this month, does anyone know if this will count towards it?

I tried emailing Caius but no reply; probably too busy with international candidates!

Thanks !

Of Course it will, and congratulations , i have offer for caius too did you apply directly or were you fished?

I applied directly too, what were your reasons for applying? my offer was for PhysNatSci and eesh medicine is super tough extra well done to you

Unconditional MML Christ's. Any other MML'ers/Christ's people?

I've got an offer from Caius for MML

Maths further maths physics and chemistry , you? I applied for a few reasons, i was on a summer school there and loved the stephen hawking building, and obviously the fact he is a fellow is pretty good too...i like the idea of lots of formal halls, and also the college is central, and pretty without being stuck up and overbearing haha also i like the crest and college colours (genuinely part of my reason)

I live in Cambridge (well, Girton, so some students would say that's not really Cambridge...)

Ah that's cool! I'm doing Biology chemistry latin and maths, is there a facebook group for caius offer holders ?

I'm the same, I really want to do biology of cells and evolution and behaviour, and I'm stuck between Chemistry and physiology. I like maths too, but I think I'm leaning towards the mathematical biology course as it seems more tailored to the degree, and I'm a bit worried that the straight maths module will contain alot of futher maths stuff which I haven't done . Have you joined the nat sci facebook group? There's a St Catz one as well but not much seems to be going on on that one

I got an offer for MML at Downing yesterday! I really hope I get in now, can't wait to meet you all What languages are you guys doing? I'm French and German.

Well, I've done a lot of English revision but that's due to me having the actual oral commentary soon (in less than 24 hours' time in fact) which makes up 15% of my overall grade, so I pretty much need a 7 in that. Overall English and Music are actually pretty relaxed as far as highers go simply because they have quite a heavy coursework side to them - by the time I take the exams I'll already have done 50% of my overall English grade and 70% of my Music one (and all of the music coursework can be re-drafted until March I think, so I won't let it go until it's at a 7 standard!). As for standard-level subjects, I've done revision for Maths studies (yeah it's a cop-out I know) and Biology, but none yet for Japanese ab initio.

History is the problem subject - there's just such a vast quantity of information you have to retain, and it seems disproportionately hard to get 7s in it compared with other highers. I've resolved to spend most of my weekends from now until the real exams reading history books to try and push my current borderline 6 standard into 7 territory before then.

So yes, as I said before, good luck in your exams! They're never as bad as you think they will be

Hey guys!
I'm in for Phys Nat Sci - offer: just 2 A's at Fitzwilliam college !!

Oh, and congratz to everyone here
