Hey guys, thought I'd share the story of my admissions interviews for Cambridge uni! Good luck to everyone who has an interview coming up (whether it's for Oxbridge, another uni, or even for a job!). I know they can be nerve-wracking but try to stay calm, have confidence in yourself and showcase what you can do! Getting an interview is an achievement in itself so be proud of yourself and enjoy the opportunity to discuss and explore the subject you're interested in with a top academic. P.S. be sure to let me know how you get on :)

PaigeY Mhm... I just can’t wait to have to interview for Uni someday! Luckily, that’s in 2023 so I’m good! (Yes, I calculated when I’m going to have academic events, don’t judge me. Hopefully the fact that 21 is my lucky number and I’m doing my GCSEs in 2021 helps lol 😂)

Melon Thanda I’m probs not the best person to ask since I’m always that person who is stressing over exams/results 😂 but as hard as it is, I just tried to push it to the back of my mind and enjoy my Christmas holiday - there’s nothing more you can do now so no point overthinking it! I’d advise just keeping yourself busy 😊

I applied to Cambridge last October and had my interview last December (bio natsci at Homerton). I completely bottled a probability question on my biology interview. Very embarrassing as I do further maths so I should be able to do maths problems... my interviewer told me my method was correct but I’d made some mistakes. I was convinced that I hadn’t been memorable or outstanding enough on either interview, but I was offered a place! It really is impossible to judge how well you’ve done on those interviews.

Thank you for this, Paige! You're a very good story teller ^^ Some thoughts about your last remark on confidence - you're right in that it doesn't determine whether you did well (especially because it's about being teachable and not perfect), but I also think that we (particularly girls) tend to automatically undermine ourselves so as not to feel too disappointed afterwards (or because it's expected socially and we somehow feel we'll be more successful for it in the end?). So to anyone who has an interview coming up, don't put yourself down by trying to depict whatever you did wrong during the interview - your application is reviewed holistically AND like Paige here you'll probably have done better than you think. Good luck to everyone, congratulations for all of your interviews!

I had interviews for MML at Trinity and my Russian one was so much better than my French one, not necessarily because I'm better at Russian but I think I was just used to the format by the second one and it made me feel more comfortable. I'm just super nervous for the 14th now aaaa 😫

I know how competitive the course is so I’m not building my hopes up but I’m still going to try my best, I wasn’t expecting an interview so honestly getting this far is good enough for me.. I’m the first person out of 14 applicants for HSPS in my school’s history to get an interview (we don’t usually get good grades lmao) so I’m proud of myself for at least getting to this point

So good to get to hear your own interview experience! I’ll be having my interviews at Jesus in two weeks time- tbh I’m both excited and nervous... 🙃🤞🏼Paige, do you have any recommendations on what to visit whilst at Cambridge? (I mean, I’m flying there from Spain so I’d like to get to know a bit more the city 😄)

Good luck with your interviews! As for stuff to do in Cambridge, I’d suggest just having a wander round the town centre, maybe a walk along the river. People say the Fitzwilliam Museum and Botanical Garden are both very good but can’t say I’ve been to either! (I need more time to explore Cambridge myself outside of term time haha)

I'm currently studying for my GCSEs (I'm in Year 11) but I'm going to sixth form soon so have to think ahead. Physical natural sciences really appeal to me as I achieve well in Physics and really enjoy it, so for A Levels I'm doing Maths, Further Maths and Physics, however I do not want to take Chemistry or Biology as I achieve well but do not enjoy them as much. I'm thinking of English Literature as a fourth but am unsure as to whether it would hold me back if I only took one science. Please could you give me some advice if you have any? It would be really helpful to me. Also, thank you for such a great channel! Whenever I need motivation for revision, your videos are perfect!

I just got stuck into extracurricular activities whilst I was studying for my a levels, whether that was attending talks at a local uni on topics that interested me, reading science-y books/articles that caught my eye, or taking part in olympiads/challenges! It should come naturally if it’s what you enjoy ☺️

No of course not! International students do very well here and have just as good a time as students from the UK. My friend Yi Jer is from Malaysia and my friend Alena is from Ukraine! It’s great to meet people from all over the world and I would love to see the number of international applications increase 😄

Hey there! I go to Oxford and have a friend who's from the USA (specifically Massachusetts), she was telling me that Oxford understand the American education system better and it's much more feasible to get the grades that Oxford require from Americans than what Cambridge require. I'd definitely recommend having a look at what subjects/qualifications you're taking and what Cambridge would want from you to see if it's possible for you to get there though!

I just finished an interview for Physics at Wadham college 2 hours ago.The questions were creatively interesting. I felt so dumb, it was absolutely awful ( because my mind is inferior not their attitudes or anything) but at one point I felt they were almost outright annoyed / laughing at me . I would be pissed if they gave me an offer, because that interview was horrible.

Ah that doesn’t sound enjoyable, well done for getting through it! I think some interviewers are better than others at making the candidates feel at ease... at any rate I’m CERTAIN you did better than you think (same goes for everyone!) and whatever the outcome, you know that you’ve given it your best shot 👍

Wait aren't you supposed to apply to colleges in Year 12? I mean in Asia we give our GCSE equivalents in Year 10 and after an advanced 2-year course we sit for the A-Levels equivalent. Anyway, good luck to you! Just a tip: start researching and exploring beyond the syllabus (like books, lectures, courses, papers) by next year so that you have ample amount of time to build your personal statement.
