We have a professor at uni whose a Cambridge grad of natural sciences and teaches dentistry (which I find really cool but random) and he just seems to know everything there is to know about literally anything.

Are you interested in research or teaching at uni level at all?

Well done for your amazing grades and Cambridge offer!
For someone in Year 10 hoping to get 8/9s in GCSEs, what advice would you give?

I'm not quite sure why you're arguing on a student based forum if you're of that age...

Stay away from things like gaming and social media. Now that exam season is coming up I have deactivated all my social media accounts, though I usually only have Facebook. Make sure you sleep well and have a healthy lifestyle; being well rested and healthy is really important. Just be smart with your time and dont waste it. (Im not saying isolate yourself and dont have friends though).

Personally I find the immune system in AS biology really hard because it's very complicated, but what we're taught is a massive simplification and therefore has lots of gaps. Fortunately the exams don't require much understanding for this topic.
Further maths has some challenging topics: I find vectors quite hard, and matrices are a bit confusing too.
Most other topics I find quite straightforward to understand, though they do require some work to remember.

Congrats anyway. You’ll be working with some top people in the world. When you get there, you’ll probably realize how brilliant some people are. Be humble all the time.
