English

I chose English because I really enjoyed it at school and was keen to explore the subject further. The breadth of the Cambridge course appealed to me, as I wasn’t sure which areas I preferred. I also liked the style of teaching, with its focus on supervisions (small group classes). I’ve really loved my course on the whole. It’s been a lot of hard work, but I’ve enjoyed working out what my interests are and getting to explore those in dissertations, especially in my final year.

Natural Sciences (Biological)

I am a second year Natural Scientist at Jesus College studying biochemistry, cell and developmental biology and chemistry. I was particularly drawn to this course as it offers a wide range of both physical and biological subjects, with the opportunity to increasingly specialise over the years. For me studying in this multidisciplinary environment has been hugely beneficial and will be a great advantage for later research.

For Natural Science students, a lot of the contact time is at the University level. I have really enjoyed the opportunity to meet...
