Cambridge Graduate Admissions?

Hi Forum,

I was just wondering whether anyone out there knows about the graduate admissions process ie how strict it is etc.. I am interested in applying for an MPhil in the Social and Developmental Psychology.

Although I just missed the 2.1 category(due to personal reasons), I have got an

MSc in Health Psychology with Merit
and
MSc in Research Methods in Psychology with Merit at UCL,

I have also published 3 articles in journals (1 of which I am the lead author and 2 of which are peer reviewed)

Do you think I have a chance???? Any comments much appreciated!!!

Simba,
Why dont you contact the department directly and ask them if you're eligible?
why cambridge in particular?
Id say go for it. You'd only live in regret if you dont give it a go

Hiya,

Yep I have contacted them already, just wanted to see what you guys think of it and get second opinions etc!

Reasoning for Cambridge is that I have always wanted to go to Cambridge, their MPhil looks great and want 2 stretch myself academically!

Why not apply for a PhD?
