Reapplying to Cambridge Maths

Hi, I got rejected from Cambridge because I did badly in my interview and I currently have a place at Imperial. I'm considering reapplying since I did STEP anyway and got S S and this will help my application. I have already got confirmation from a few colleges that if I get an offer at them it will be unconditional but I'm worried I might mess up the interview again.
I know gap years are viewed badly for maths degrees, I'm wondering what my chances of being rejected from Imperial or Warwick will be if I don't do amazing on TMUA(last year I got 8.5 but I don't want to take risks), and how much my STEP grades will help.

Focus on Imperial and aim for Cambridge postgrad.

Do you know how common it is for people to go from Imperial to Cambridge postgrad? I figured it would be better to aim for Cambridge undergrad with my STEP grades, especially since I know I did especially bad at interview last time and I still got winter pool(but wasn't picked), whereas aiming for Cam from Imperial might be more difficult.

Can you attend Imperial for the first year and re-apply to Cambridge. If you get through, move to Cambridge, otherwise, carry on at Imperial. The cost is one year of effort, time and money at Imperial but it will protect your brain of going rusty. It may sound not quite right...just a thought!

No you can't. Cam doesn't accept moves like that.

Not even to start from the begining at Cambridge, not to consider the year you have at Emperial?

No, specifically not that. They don't want to a) get a reputation from other Unis for 'stealing' students or b) create an alternative entry route to Cambridge. Think about the dynamics of setting up another route, not from A levels, but by just going to another uni for a year, then leaving and getting in to Cam. The whole admissions system would fall apart, and the feeder unis would be left with great gaps in their classes.

Take a look at this chart, OP: https://www.reddit.com/r/6thForm/comments/1l4ldzg/a_ranking_of_nonoxbridge_maths_courses_by_the/

Reddit is not an authority I would trust - League tables are similarly suspect.

Do you think the author falsified the data? If so, which data?
