Well you won't even be considered if you don't apply... :wink:

There's no restriction to the number of postgrad courses anyone can apply for so there's absolutely nothing to lose if you apply. If you are likely to meet their typical requirements you are pretty likely to get an offer.

Hi Doonesbury! thanks for your reply!

Well what are their 'typical requirements'? :afraid:

I am a final year BSc Medical Biotechnology student with a 3.7 GPA, active in clubs and student ambassador activities, with a 3-month internship under the marketing and business department in a bio-based company. I know its not much, but do you think its alright? :biggrin:

Well their minimum requirement is 2:i honours or a 3.5 GPA. But I also found this on their admissions page:

"Entry to the programme is highly competitive, with many applications received for every place. Approximately 25 students are accepted annually on the basis of a written submission, followed by interview. The strongest applicants have a record of high academic achievement and relevant work or professional postgraduate experience, gained in an academic, industrial or business environment. Each year a number of first class new graduates are also accepted."

So what do you think?

The number of places tells you precisely nothing about how competitive it is. Every course is competitive at Cambridge. Ask them how many applicants they have and the number of offers they make.

Anyway, I think you apply...
