I 'm applying for economics and have a written test on 13th and two interviews on 14th :biggrin:

btw, I got a sample admission test as well. Is that there would be 2 written tests: one similar to the sample and one is the TSA test :frown:

Oops, it seems they just updated the written test for this year, no TSA for Caius :P
Yep, I ask for accommodation on the 12th and 13th as I will have written test on the 12th, 13.30 pm :frown:

Hope to see you too :biggrin:

I got my letter from Caius yesterday, I've got three interviews on December 7th: 11:50 with Kings, 14:00 with Clare and 17:40 with Caius (where I applied). I've applied for Classics so I think it is normal to get three interviews, has anyone else got three separate Colleges interviewing them? Not sure whether Caius does not want to waste two interviews on me, or other Colleges are interested in me. Regardless, that is going to be one INTENSE day.

Going for my interviews next week will be my first time in Cambridge, and I know this question may seem stupid but what how do I get to Caius once I leave my train at Cambridge? Should I take a taxi or ask students to direct me?

Oh and what's the weather like at this time of year?

Weather: dress warmly (ie winter coat, scarf, gloves).

Will you need to check into your accommodation? (Where are they actually housing interview candidates this year?!). I'd recommend taking a taxi: from the station to Caius main site should cost about £5 or £6. It is only a 25 minute walk (see the map here: http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=d&source=s_d&saddr=Cambridge+railway+station&daddr=Gonville+and+Caius+College,+Cambridge&geocode=FQptHAMdThkCACnj7xPFg3DYRzHigkCsVNmUJw%3BFVCZHAMd38wBACHbNZo5cZtc6Q&hl=en&mra=pd&mrcr=0&dirflg=w&sll=51.868942,0.040178&sspn=0.76315,2.705383&ie=UTF8&ll=52.200479,0.130291&spn=0.011836,0.042272&z=15 but you'll probably have enough to think about with the interviews without worrying about navigating your way around a strange city.

Good luck!

Thanks! You're probably right, i'll take a quick taxi then. I'm not sure where i'll be accommodated (i'll ask at the plodge) but i'm definately staying for the night before my interviews. I have a map of the college showing the courts and buildings so i'll be fine in that respect. Thanks again!

Hi! I' m an international candidate and I want to study engineering. I received an invitation for interview a few days ago, and according to the invitation I m going to sit a written test.
Is there any particular syllabus for that? I have started brushing up my maths..
I would appreciate if someone could upload past papers or questions.
