I have A*A*A A predicted!
in my personal statement i talked about my epq topic ( on gothic architecture), part of my history coursework (i did some extra research on the architecture of the time period i was studying), an essay competition from cambridge that i won (on sustainability in architecture), and a design programme i took part in during year 12!
i tried to talk about specific aspects of architecture that interest me, hence why i mentioned a lot of architectural history :smile: hope this helps

Did anyone hear back from UCL or Cambridge for Architecture? If so, when did you submit your portfolio?

they’re online, your school will probably let you do it in a classroom if you can’t do it at home

I've just received an email about doing the Cambridge assessment online. Does anyone know where to find past papers for this? I've only managed to find 2 papers, one from 2016 and one from 2018.
