Ah cool! I did computing for AS, that was alright I suppose lol! I got a C, and I thought they'd decline me because of that !
We haven't done our coursework yet! Well actually we did one right at the beginning, making benzoate salt or something but none others yet! We're rushing through it and I'm not taking it in aha
So you're doing 5? Maths and further also?
OH MY GOD, now I feel dumb lol. Especially when C1 was my only non-100 paper LOL.
Ah cool! It was, lots of people applied compared with last year! Like +20. My 2nd interview with Crawley and Sousi went so bad (if you had them aha).
Is it? No I haven't been to see it before, I didn't go inside of Emmanuel either - only when interviews came! I wasn't particularly fussed where I went anyway!
What's your insurance?
C1 was your only non-100 paper? :O How did you get 100% in all the others lol? My maths UMS was all over the place lol
Yeah I'm doing 5 in total, but 4 right now (with maths done). Tbh it's probably a good thing not to do so many because coursework sucks away your time like a black hole! I dunno, I quite like computing - a lot of it almost like another branch of maths, but then again you get a lot of that hardware stuff as well.
Not sure who to insure actually. I've got an offer from Imperial, and I'd really like to go there as well, but it feels like I have to choose directly between Imperial and Cambridge because Imperial gave me a STEP III offer as well (though it's 'only' a 2 required)! After Cam/ICL it would probably have to be Warwick.
tbh neither did i. But the college is so beautiful and I'm just so happy to have gotten an offer at all! :P
fair enough, i would love the college if it wasn't all girls as everything about it is sooo good! but i dont think it would ruin my time at cambridge, i dont see why cambridge still have three all female colleges because they are unnecessary in this day and age and oxford have none! we'll have a blast tho, everyone socialises lots outside the college and i'm planning on joining every society and sports team i can anyway! :')

Oxford has an all-boys college though O_o (*cough* St Benet's *cough*)
Sorry for the late reply, I just emailed the college secretary. This is an extract of what I said in the email:
In accordance with the Data Protection Act, I would like to request a copy of my interview report, any reports or scoring of the essay which I wrote as part of the application process and any other documents contained in my file. The University's policy regarding this matter can be found in Section 3.5 of 'Information for Admissions Interviewers for the Cambridge Colleges', Appendix A of the Undergraduate Admissions Handbook. Section 3.5 reads:
Interviewer report forms that are retained in an applicant’s file and passed, if required, to the Pool are subject to the Data Protection Act. An applicant may request to see these reports, particularly in the event of a complaint. Informal personal notes that are not held in a file and destroyed after the interview process can remain confidential. If they are still in existence at the time of any request to see the data held, on paper or electronically, they will be required under the Act to be included in the information that has to be made available to the applicant requesting it.
They have now made the appendices of the undergraduate admissions handbook inaccessible, but I don't see why it would have changed.
Basically, you're entitled to see anything that has your name on it.
Single sex colleges are just a bad idea because no one applies there so they just get pooled to them, if no one wants to go to single sex colleges why do they have them!
Yeah me - I'm not sure whether to try for A*s in as many subjects as possible or to focus on one or two subjects. It certainly could have been worse than A*AA though, from some of the offers I've seen.

obviously try to get the highest mark in all your subjects then you cant lose
St John's has finally updated Track and thereby confirmed that my offer is unconditional UCAS didn't send me an e-mail though, so I would advise all of you who have not received UCAS notifications yet to check it frequently.
