Oxford doesn't really let you progress to an MSc masters programme, unless you are already working in teaching - plus there is a high requirement of a high 2:1/1st class if you even want to enter the programme, despite PGCE requirements being a 2:2. I would also say the topics aren't as engaging or interesting compared to the ones Cambridge offer - however this is a personal opinion. Finally, Oxford's masters course is part time 2 years, whilst Cambridge offer a 1 year part time masters - time and money wise, I found it smarter to go with Cambridge. Cambridge have a dedicated masters course for students progressing from PGCE to MEd - much more specialised!

I went to my cambridge interview they said its 2 years part time.. not one year 1 part time, thats like impossible

Anyone had an interview today? I applied for secondary maths and think I did not perform well in the interview today😣Some questions were quite tricky for me tbh

The interviewers were quite nice actually but I have been asked more than 12 questions in 35 mins. And some questions were really unexpected. Is that normal? Haha I am panicking

Ahh great! That’s so exciting. Let me know if you find anyone else and maybe we could make a WhatsApp group closer to the time?

Hiya! Would you be able to give a bit more insight into what the interview was like and the style of the questions please? I have an interview this week and I'm super nervous - especially after seeing this, haha. P.S I hope you hear some positive news back soon!
