Oxford DPhil Chances with Cambridge MPhil
Hello, I basically have missed my distinction at Cambridge however I have a mark of 71 (Cambridge distinction is marked at 75 and pass being at 60).
Does anyone have any insight to whether or not my grades are going to be competitive enough to apply to Oxford? I feel slightly hard done by considering the fact that I got a mark that would be considered distinction at other universities (including Oxford) and also doing a very tough course.
I’m looking at a range of physics courses/engineering. And have been in touch with various supervisors. Wanted to know if anyone else had been in a similar position.
