Cambridge World of Words 2025

Hi, I was wondering if anyone had received any confirmation about whether they got into Cambridge’s world of words residential

Tbh I highly doubt that I’ll get in bc I’ve already been accepted into another study day there but not knowing is really keeping me on edge.

I’ve not heard anything either but am anxiously waiting the result. What a levels are you doing and what do you hope to do at uni?

I’m doing English lit, Latin and history and Greek GCSE and I’m hoping to do either classics and English joint honours at Oxford, Linguistics or ASNC at Cambridge, Ancient Languages at UCL or LiberaL Arts at Durham (I’m really not sure)

What about you??
