Clive is nice, though he needs some new catchphrases. The others aren't scary- more dull. They don't pounce! But, yeah, there are a lot of Big Issue sellers.

ps. Good college choice:biggrin:

I think Bio NatSci interviews will be fairly similar from college to college; my intitial interviewers at Pembroke took a similar approach to the ones at Sidney- the only difference was my Sidney one was through the winter pool so I had two interviewers in one interview rather than one interviewer in two sepearte interviews. At Sidney I remember being asked about pineapples and their defense systems (enymes, spiney bits etc), DNA coiling, and some Chemistry bits. At Pembroke I got asked about a wierd bug thing he showed me on his lap top, it's ciruclation, feeding mechanisms and stuff, and about how I'd test to see if rats were colour blind, and the brain. I think I was also asked about a book I said I'd read. But it was a loooong time ago, so there will be different questions, and the format may have changed slightly. All the fellows at Sidney are lovely though, so there's no need to be scared of them!
Hellooo, I'm applying for MML as well. I really hope they let us know when interviews are soon.

It is. But you won't have lectures there until the third year (or unless you go to the non-examined History of Mathematics lectures). You'll be at the New Museums Site and Mill Lane for the first two years.
