ESAT and Interviews

Because so many people have said the ESAT went awfully for them does this mean that unis like Cambridge and imperial are going to be giving interviews to anyone that has competitive a leve, PS and GCSE grades, regardless of whether they failed or barely passed the ESAT.

SOOOOOOOOO? how did the esat go guuuuuuuuuys?

Hello Harry! We met in Cambridge. How did you do?
I got 7.0 in maths 1
7.7 in physics
8.9 in chem.

I'm confused because my ESAT score is very low as in below a 4 but I have an interview so I don't understand whether or not they're giving the interview because they have to invite 75/80% of applicants to interview.

Someone at my school with 4A* all 9s at GCSE and great PS + ref was rejected pre-interview because of their ESAT which was higher than mine so I'm trying to gauge whether it would be in my best interests to just decline the interview and avoid the stress of preparing for it if its just "protocol" to give a certain number out.

hi sturmanator 🙂 that's actually insane wtf?? welcome to cambridge lmao you beat literally everyone at my school as far as i know. i'm not gonna check my scores until after interview bc i'll either get too cocky or too defeatist, but it's still probably not as high as that; the best ppl at my school averaged 6.8 or something

Hey man, I respect that very highly you know. I’m sure you smashed them. Thanks for the encouragement too, I hope to see you there if we both get in!
