Cambridge - gettiing laid at freshers week and interview!

Ok, there are virtually no rules about having people in your rooms or whatever - technically if you have a visitor from outside your college, you're meant to sign them in and they're only meant to stay a certain number of nights, but within college there's no problem. We all live on mixed staircases (in my college, at any rate!) anyway. Everyone's an adult, so why wouldn't it be allowed? However, Freshers' week antics on a shagging scale were somewhat quiet compared with what I've heard at other unis, so don't get your hopes up too much. I didn't pull and neither did an awful lot of other people.

As for the interview, I've no idea what sort of stuff they'll ask you, but basically they'll test you until you can't do any more.

You can bring anyone back to your room, (although you can't move someone in...) so technically it would be easy to get laid in freshers' week. In practice, not many freshers here are up for that. Shame too. :-)

Don't worry Haz you just wait for me !

LOL! You really ARE rebellious aintcha!

BTW We will definitely meet if we both get in, fellow scorpian

Yeah baby! But will Cambridge like this character in me...

Oh of course

I don't know, they seem to like their peace and contentment, I would just bring the rowdiness and jokes...

2) this is more academic doubt. what do u think i must expect as a tricky question in an interview on natural sciences -biology? this would be really cool if u could tell me, i hav no idea!!!!

thanks a lot for everything mates
cheers

Do you mena to say that a friend could actually stay for a few nites free-of-charge in your room? That means that my dad brother from overseas could do that right?

Hi everyone, I am an international student and was wondering if you could please clear some doubts for me, I would really be pleased!

1) is aw something bout gettimng laid and shagging in freshers week at cambridge. i was thinking if you could please explain to me how=? i mean here in my country students try, but rarely shag in freshers as the dorm authorities would throw u out! i thought cambridge would be even more strict, i mean how do u take a girl to your dorm to shag without getting caught, don't people tell u it's not allowed?
just curious about this one!1

I'm at Clare, doing Medicine.

The interviews are meant to be tough - designed to separate the wheat from the chaff, so to speak. But keep your head and you'll be fine - and if you genuinely don't know something, admit it and try to work it out; this'll impress them more than bullshitting.

Haha, a clare medic brilliant. Do you get to see Alan, Ellen, Helen, Jane etc much, or do medic years not talk to each other a great deal?

Jane and Alan are my grandparents! Don't see them much, although we do have the occasional medic formal hall etc where we see them (and at James' 21st the other week).

Sorry that our year is disappointing you and all that Clareifornication was complaining that Freshers weren't up to enough, when in fact we were (although yes, not as rife as it seems to be in other places), just not telling them, or we would tell them and they wouldn't print it.

Im assuming thats meant to be the clare newsletter. How witty a name (seriously, its quite bad). AS for James 21st...the aftermath was quite superb. I think it was ellen that had to be heaved back to the clare colony house. Ah those crazy irish (well theres only 1 in clare)
J

It's the gossip column of the newsletter, which is called Clareification (oh, the wit!) Anyway, the important thing is I'm not in it!

Don't know about the aftermath to James' 21st - we kind of got separated from the 2nd/3rd years once we got to Cindy's, but they were all looking pretty wasted. Urgh, carrying someone back to the colony - that's not a task I envy!

What college are you at?
