Cambridge Uni

Hi Everyone!
I’ve been wondering about Cambridge uni and I hope some of you might be able to help! I am in year 11, so I have started to wonder if Cambridge could be a possibility for university. Is there any advice anyone could give about extracurricular activities that Cambridge might be interested in? Thanks!

They only really care about supercurriculars. These are extracurriculars that are directly related to your subject. For example, reading around your subject, watching public lectures about your subject, etc.
This usually means things like sports and musical instruments (unless you're studying Music) won't make a difference to your application.
