Sorry to keep the Mathematicians waiting

 . . . . and sorry I haven't posted anything for a few days. We've arranged ALL the interviews now with the exception of Mathematics! I'm really sorry it's still not done but I can tell you that the interivews will be on the 7th, 8th, 9th, 14th & 15th December. We will be offering interviews to everyone who applied to this College to study Mathematics - I'll send you details as soon as I possibly can.
We have scheduled 1245 interviews in all the other subjects so when we add the Mathematics interviews in as well we will have arranged over 2,000 Cambridge interviews this year. We started interviews on 15th November (in one or two subjects) and will finally finish on 16th December so that's an average 400-500 interviews a week! Though it's a bit misleading to put it that way because there will be far more interviews taking place from 6th to16th December than 15th November to 3rd December.
So whether you are still waiting to have your interviews or have already had them let me wish you all the best.

  1. Does this mean there are over 750 applicants for mathematics?!!!

  2. Ah thanks Rosie! I was thinking about this later and realised that what I have done is to multipy the number of interviewers by the number of interviewees! Sorry!
