Although, it would cement the whole oldness argument. Otherwise that would be REALLY creepy... :rolleyes:

What are you applying for?

I was merely pointing it out =p that was only on a 3 year average mind.


Ha ha, when i said "If you go to all that effort..." I meant if someone actually bothered to get the data for the last 10 years, not just curiously flicking through some stats. Picking where you want to sleep for the next 3 years doesn't require *that* much effort :wink:

Medicine, PPE or Natural Sciences.

Would you mind telling me how much they charged?
It would be interesting to know :wink:


Cost about £25 IIRC. Food not included.

I'm assuming you meant to write PPS, and slipped. Unless you're considering applying to the other place.

Anyway, I suggest you resit core 1. It's an easy module, which a lot of applicants will have high 90s in.

Hey, no i didnt, but dont worry if you have to retake one or two exams. I know a friend who has an offer from Caius (for compsci) who retook 2 maths exams
Hope this helps :smile:

The interviews were really good, and in a strange way, i kinda enjoyed them :smile: the interviewers were all really friendly too :smile:. The interviews themselves were very academic, and you do get qu that you have no idea about//havent learnt, but you dont have to give the 'right' answer, as long as you justify your reasoning.
I applied to caius originally, and they give bmat a very high priority, so although my interview was really good, my bmat was too bad to be given an offer (it was 3.8, 5.7, 3A). :smile: but they pooled me, and i was reinterviewed at sidney sussex n murray edwards (which place less emphasis on bmat)
