I have my interview next Tuesda for Cambridge. I refuse to start getting nervous until Sunday at least. The main piece of advice I've received is don't be scared of saying 'I don't know but I would hazard a guess' . They want to know how you think and whether htey can teach you, not whethe ryou know everything. Good luck.

Glad I didn't take Panda's advice  absolutely loved it. Was the first time I had been and I just loved the whole feel of it and where it was located, just everything about it. Interview went well and I got made an offer of AAB there and then, but the guy said the reason they interview is incase applicants don't quite make the grades and they use the interview to decide whether or not to let people in. And he told me if I drop below by a grade, or even 2 grades, to still get in contact so I must have been good :cool: think that's gonna be first choice tbh.

| best of luck even if you've ignored my advice and applied to cambridge. Yeah you pretty certainly be asked something pretty challenging that you haven't came across before and will have to think your way through.

Thanks for the good luck messages guys. I might be taking your adivce next year Theis, I'm pretty sure I will reapply for PPE at Oxford if I don't get in. I'm in quite a good mental state actually because PPE really excites me so hopefully I won't be too distraught if I don't get in.

| Good luck mate, if you get into York, just hope they don't put you in Halifax College, it's crap!
I'll buy you a drink if you end up here.
