Hi, I need to think of applying to Universities my mind keeps wandering to apply to Cambridge but i don't want to try if i don't have a good chance
Gsces: Chemistry 8, Biology 9, physics 7, Maths 8, English lit and lang 8, Geography 9, History 8, German 9, further maths 7
Good enough Gsces or will my lack of 9s put me at a disadvantage ?
Alevels: Biology, Chemistry Maths
Hopefully predicted quite high grades but will 3 Alevels put me at a distadvantage?
Work experience and super curriculars:
Nhs Pharmacy work experience,GSK work experience, Volunteered at my local chemist,
Biochemistry mooc course, BSMS medical work experience, chemistry essay competition, Cambridge chemistry summer school, reading books such as "why chemical reactions happen"
and if i have time i will try do Chemistry Olympiad, Chemistry and maths tutor
Volunteering: Summer reading challenge volunteer, Elderly home, reading mentor and Coach for younger children
extra curricular: altho probably won't matter,
Grade 7 piano distinction
Grade 7 flute distinction
Grade 5 theory distinction
Rangers/guides leader
Jazz band, choir, flute group, Orchestra
I am very keen on trying for Cambridge but i don't want to if i have a very low chance of getting in...
also what can i do as a student in year 12 to build up my application? I would like to study Bio natural sciences is this a very competitive course?
Many Thanks
