2017 Mathematics Applicants Thread

Thank you - Girton! Not the most glamorous but at the end of the day, Cambridge is Cambridge

I got an offer from Nottingham a few weeks ago, about 10 days after I sent off my UCAS. I had a maths interview at Manchester last week, it wasn't that formal, quite short. Mine was just a chat about what I like about maths, and a friend of mine said her interviewer spent half of the time asking her about A level art

Did they ask you any maths questions? Also, have you heard anything back since the interview?

I didn't get asked a maths question and neither did my friend, according to the students I met around 50% get a maths question. I've had an email saying they are in the process of making me an offer but I haven't actually received an offer/rejection yet

Okay thank you, good luck 🙂

I think it looks really nice there! It's got a swimming pool hasn't it? What UMS scores did you get in your AS?

My offer just came through about 10 minutes ago! 3 As, including maths and further maths

My UMS was actually quite poor by Cambridge standards. 290/300 AS maths, 267/300 FM

Name: Ash
AS Results: AAAAA (maths, further maths, physics, chemistry, computer science)
A2 (predicted): A*A*A*A* (maths, further maths, physics, chemistry
UMS: 690/700
Universities applied to: Cambridge (Trinity), Imperial, Warwick, St Andrews, Bath
Fun fact: somewhat decent pianist

Welcome to the thread Ash. Congratulations on your brilliant results at AS level ! Which modules did you do at AS?

Has anyone received an offer from Imperial yet?

I received a conditional offer on Nov. 2nd

From imperial? Did you sit the MAT?

Yes, they ask me 16 overall at the French Baccalaureate (A*) with 16 maths (A*) and 15 physics-chemistry (A).

I passed the MAT and received an offer maybe 5 hours later.
