Thank you so much, and well done to you too! :biggrin:

Living ****, that remark! Genuinely thought I didn't have a chance...If that happens again this year I'll go to the OCR offices with a flamethrower.

What happened?

I made a freedom of information request last year and they emailed me a copy of my interview report. They charged me £10.

How would one go about doing that?

Well, I might as well post in here since I can :biggrin:

Pembroke Engineering for A*A*AA, though my A has already been achieved, so it's effectively A*A*A.

I'm sure this will give me really good motivation to revise hard this year too :smile:

There are very many people at Cambridge who are super lazy. And who knows, you may end up trying a lot of stuff once you start there (I sure did!).

Cambridge is like the least money-flashy place to be really, most people just eat in college so there's not much big spending on meals, no one really gets many drinks at clubs because they just get their haul from Sainsbury's and/or student bar beforehand, and to be honest I can't really think of much else in the way of expenditure you can really incur there. Besides, around 2/3rds of Cam are state schoolers, and of the private schoolers many aren't really that well off at all.

Oh OK I just thought of one expenditure thing which I guess does happen, which is that some people might have tricked out setups with like big TVs, top computers/projectors/speakers and game consoles in their rooms. That's about it though tbh.
