Me! Got fished out of the pool for economics... What about you and how's the college if you have been there already in december?


Congratulations! :smile: If you had to be fished out by any college, Christ's is certainly one of the best! It's not too big yet not too small, it's wonderfully located (literally a five second walk to the nearest shops!) and offers on-site or very-near-site accommodation for all three years.

I got an offer for History, I'm over the moon :biggrin:

This is the Facebook page that the Freshers' reps have set up for offer holders, if you have any questions you can always ask them :smile:

What's your offer?


This was posted from The Student Room's iPhone/iPad App


They sent me an email today in which they basically said that I will get to know the actual conditions when the letter arrives. Hence, I don't know it yet. Furthermore, I am an international applicant, so I guess my German-Abitur-offer would not help you too much. What about yours?

A huge congrats to everyone who got an offer from Christ's, you've certainly picked (or been lucky enough to have been pooled to) the best college in Cambridge :biggrin:

I've quoted you because you're (fingers crossed) going to be doing economics. Let me know if you have any questions about the subject, or econ at Christ's in particular :smile:

Hi,

In the Econ course, is it really maths based?

Hi there, fellow Christ's economist!

How is the college support for economics student, i.e. are the Christ's economics fellows (with whom we are going to have the supervisions?) friendly and helpful?

Academically, due to extensive college support, do Chist's students usually do well, especially the ones reading economics?

Finally, how is the atmosphere between the economics students from your perspective?

Well, that is higher than I expected. Thought it would be the standard A*AA. Anyway, good luck with achieving your offer and, hopefully, see you later this year!

Congratulations! No one was explicitly invited to join, go ahead and request to be added into it, would be great to get some more people into the group (and that goes for anyone with an offer from Christ's, join the group!).

Hey, I've decided that I'm going to PM you two, since the thread could get quite clogged up with economics info!

Got a rejection for NatSci Physical, pretty disappointing. But well done to all the people that did get in. :smile:
Just out of interest, did anyone get the fabled EE offer this year (or ever)?

That would be absolutely wonderful, never heard of that before though... :smile:

Apparently, traditionally 1/3 of offers have been that from Christ's. I've only ever seen the rumour floated round on this though...
A contact of mine at Christ's mentioned a while back they don't do those matriculation offers anymore.
