I know exactly what you mean, I found the interview challenging. Lots of people feel like this after the interview but many also end up getting offers. I'd say try not to stress, there's more to life than cambridge anyway!

Totally normal reaction at this stage.

I'm so glad people are talking about this! I feel like I asked some really really dumb questions and in the first bit, I literally couldn't come up with answers even though the topic was easy. It's actually embarrassing.😞

And yes, 11 days is way way too long

What subjects are you guys waiting for?
