Sounds a lot better than my state school :wink:

I think we have like 2 or 3 maths applicants per year, similar as number of Oxbridge applicants, hardly ever cross over though. Only had one other person who applied to Oxbridge for Maths (over the 60 years my school has existed AFAIK) and he was rejected (from Cambridge) pre-interview.

Yes, I have been emailed about the Offer Holders day. I really want to go but I'm on a school trip to Germany and don't get back until the next day!! I'm really disappointed but there's nothing I can do about it (unless so many people can't come that it gets moved, which seems unlikely). It seems slightly foolish to put it in half term - I can't be the only one who can't come! Are you going?


Oh no! I am going and my friend is too. I think maybe because they don't want us to miss any school considering we have to meet such a high offer? Yeah I know what you mean though, there's a school trip that week from my school which I would have wanted to go on if there was enough places - suddenly glad that there wasn't! I'll let you know what happens though :smile:

Newnham has sent e-mails about an offer holders open day on the 15th February :smile: Other colleges might be having others at a later date or sending out invites to the open day later.
