"Having a chat with current students about life at Christ's was really good, as they provided a perspective which you don't really get when reading information on the website and the prospectus."

Important to note when choosing school subjects:
To apply for Maths at Cambridge University, you should study Mathematics at the most advanced level available in your curriculum.
If you are taking (UK-designed) A levels, you must take at least 3 A-levels including both Mathematics and Further Mathematics in order to meet the subject requirements. If your school does not offer Further Mathematics, you may be able to get support via the Further Maths Support Programme.
If you are studying in the Scottish education system, do read the maths page in our Scotland section.
If you are studying for the International Baccalaureate do read our IB page.

"We were fortunate to have James as our tour guide - spontaneous, frank, amusing and most informative- he was a breath of fresh air and gave us a good idea of what it would be like to be a student resident at Christ's College - every student's dream!"
