Overqualified for Imperial EEE??

Is there such a thing as being overqualified for Imperial EEE? Or maybe I might not be good enough

Overqualified? Sounds pretty arrogant and narcissistic in my eyes.

Imperial didn't reject you because you were "overqualified", in my opinion you aren’t. They didn't give you an interview because to put it simply, they didn't want you. You can contact them and ask why if you weren't given a reason already, if you would like.

I cannot tell you how to feel about getting rejected from Imperial, it feels like you have created this idea of "overqualification" to make yourself feel better, but rejection is a normal part of life. You got into Cambridge so work hard to get the grades needed for your offer and move on. Good luck in the future.
