I got an offer from Oxford University to study Maths there starting in September!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO happy [/end jubilation]
Steven Hawking to retire in 2009. Hurry up and graduate so you can fill his spot (at Cambridge, I know, I know)!
Absolutely no idea, but it's ranked as the most employable degree in the UK - so I can pretty much do anything (within reason, obviously) with it. Plus, since it would be from Oxford, it gives added prestige to it. I'll probably end up in accountancy or something, but I really hope I don't, lol.
Nice one, you took further maths I assume? My sister got really pissed off because no one told her she needed it to get into Oxbridge.
I did, and it is true that you don't need to take Further Maths to get into Oxbridge, even if you want to study Maths. However, this would usually be because your school couldn't offer it, and it does make it more difficult to get in.
