And the other must be either Latin or Ancient Greek.

Plus you need to be able to write in hieroglyphics.

They've changed it now, they actually need to (successfully) perform a level 3 brain surgery, using nothing but a pen and paper. Its to toughen things up since not everyone will have UMS.

Don't listen to these people

Work for a high BMAT score and relevant work experience

What is your UMS average? You only have a chance of interview if your UMS is over 180%.

Also, you want at least 18A*s at GCSE, and all of them must be sciences.

Although evidently sarcastic, it isn't exactly comforting for a prospective applicant to be hit with this demeanor. You two were once applicants, so pipe down.

People on TSR are disproportionately qualified (according to the users themselves, at least) compared to most Cambridge applicants. You might make it into Cambridge without doing the above stuff, but will you make it into the exclusive Cambridge TSR society?

Lol I got a D in English last year and for the past 18 months or so, I have probably leaded the 'Cambridge TSR Society' with my amazing post count in this forum

I feel so inadequate reading this thread, particularly lately lol
Anyway less than 5 days to go... How time flies! I only recently remembered that I'd actually done EPQ too, and that result is coming out as well which is a strange feeling for some reason :lol:

Lol I sometimes feel bad for being nervous about results when people have STEP and such

I forget about my EPQ. I hope I can get a C at least

@drandy76 @Mathemagicien Although I had a nice time laughing at your jokes it is not fair being that salty.
