Cambridge rejections/acceptances

so who gets these......people who are absolutely brilliant in their interviews?

Someone got an offer of EEE- see Oxbridge profiles

Pretty much. Catz do it sometimes too.

An anomalie (sp?). The term matriculation is used to describe the Government's absolute minimum GCE grades for University entry, which happens to be two E grades.

I think so. I stand corrected. Matriculation offer, EE.
My aunt got into Christ's on EE. Lucky her.

I wonder what the employment prospects are for Cambridge graduates with 1sts

Indeed. My aunt got into both Oxford and Cambridge, but never completed her MML degree at Trinity because she dropped out to become an actor!

I see, no one has applied to Pembroke nor to do CompSci.... Does that mean I have a better chance of getting in?

see this post for more info on Post Interview Syndrome

i know someone who applied for compsci at pem and seeing as there are 3 places available i would have thought it would be quite tough to get in.

Is she anyone famous?

Phil at Emmanuel is the most evil (2nd most competitive course at most competitive college).

17 applicants, 2 places

No, that's the irony.

The tactic is to apply for Oriental Studies at Homerton, or Classics at Girton (2 applicants 2001-2002; 4 acceptances)!

Surely the Winter Pool can only even things out to a certain extent - if you are really bothered you probably could play the system and find the most undersubscribed college.
