Awesome! How many are there for Japanese at Pembroke? Can't be many I'd imagine

Edit: I checked the college website - only three! Nice job on getting a place :smile:

Hello ya'll, anyone for English? Or from Teddy Hall?
Hi :tongue: Anyone with an offer for law around? I'm reapplying this year. Last year I did pretty well on the multiple choice part but my essay must've been quite bad so any tips on that would be much appreciated (:

Helloo! I'm off to St. Peter's to read Law in Oct :smile:

For the essay I'd definitely recommend using www.debatingmatters.com - I looked through most of the topics and read about each thing. These are exactly the kind of subjects the LNAT delves into in the essay section, so having some basic arguments and knowledge makes the whole process so much easier. Other than that (and obviously practice), I'd only really recommend making sure your typing speed is like lightening. The more time you have to check and reword, the better :-)
