Officially they do law, economics and environment!!!
But from what i've seen adn heard from a few Downing land economists i met at my interview they do more sport and drinking than in any other subject coz they ahve the highest amount of free time apparently!! :rolleyes:

Lol I'll see the truth when i get there but what i cna promise is that i applied for the subject and not for the amount of free time and drinking!!! :biggrin:

Lol even though i think i wont mind having less work and more fun then others! :wink:

i would be very suprised if there wasnt a meetup, since we were the pioneers of such UKL meetups....and they are mostly fun (if a little daunting and suprising in some cases!)

I wanna join the meetup! - meh I'm not at Cambridge though :frown:

- just to meet everyone... :rolleyes:

Meeting people online is sorta scary! :biggrin:

cus you don't know what to expect! Cus it's like you know the person but you don't know the face - so your mind tells you you don't know this person but really you do! :confused:

Although it settles after the first time :biggrin:

I think in my case it was simply cus I'd never seen a pic before meeting up :rolleyes:

I kept saying "This is soo strange!" - don't think he was impressed... :rolleyes:

But meeting him was well cool :biggrin:

Hi all! I was just wondering, has anyone on this board received offers from Pembroke, with a view to starting in 2005? I've been offered a place (AAA) to read History. I'd love to hear back from anyone who hopes to go to Pembroke this October/other historically-minded folks! :-)

Charlotte

P.S
Message for Beatrice: If you are reading this Beatrice, let me know how you got on (RE 9/12/04) - have you been offered a place for Eng Lit? Hope so! :smile:

Yeah I got one for Med, see you in Pem at 2005 then.

oh yeah... sure you didn't take the free time into account at all :wink:

As a science student i'm sure I wont' get as much free time as you!

lol i was five ... then at 12 i decided that i was too social to work alone and research all day so that i wanted to be a lawyer becoz i loved talking and defending poeple! lol i also think that at some point i saw legally blond and that just influenced me a bit! :biggrin:

then at 15 i realised that i didnt want to learn by heart all the penal code ... and that i'd be bored to write essays on it ... and when i started Economics i discovered that i loved the subject and that it was easy to understand for me so i went for Economics at uni or mostly Interrnational or development economics... And then i found Land Economy which regrouped a bit all my interests! This subject was made for me ! lol no really I love what i've read abotu the program plus i know a lot about it coz i do the IB diploma and for that u got to write a 4000 words essay on the topic of ur choice and i chose sustainable development which covers law, economics and environment! That's what got me in Cambridge (or at least a low offer!) :smile:

But the free time will definately stay a + :biggrin:

and if i juge by the amount of time scientific students like Camford (It's the 2nd time i refer to him... i know... but I promise I'm not obsessed, it's just the easiest name to remember) spend on this forum, I'd say u'll get free time aswell! :biggrin:
