Oxbridge applications 2027 entry

[Justlurkingmostly]

Starting up a new thread for anyone whose YP might be applying this autumn for entry next year!

Our DC has I think decided they’ll make an application (biology at Oxford). Look forward to sharing info and keeping each other somewhat sane through the process x

Thank you for the thread. I’ll join. DC wants to apply for NatSci at Cambridge.
I’ve no idea how it all works (have an older dc but he was never going to apply to Oxbridge) so this is all new to me.

Hi, my daughter is going to apply for psychology, linguistics and philosophy at Oxford. Although I'm not really convinced Oxbridge is her scene.

Joining as well - ESAT booked yesterday and studying for it is well underway!

I’ll join too if I may - thanks for starting the thread @Justlurkingmostly.

Thanks for starting this thread @Justlurkingmostly DD2 is hoping to do NatSci at Cambridge, ESATs booked for October.

For those doing the ESAT, what prep are your DCs doing? Dd hasn’t started yet. She’s currently on a residential (back tonight) but it’s on her list to start next week.

Hello all. My eldest is wanting to do history at Cambridge. Not decided on college yet though - she went to the open day in July and managed to see Sidney Caius and Trinity. I think she’s going to go down again on 11th Sept to look at a few more as there is another Colleges open day then.

Thanks for creating this thread. DD1 wants to apply to Cambridge this autumn. The college she loves is one that says it often sets higher than standard offers for her course (eek!), which makes the whole thing feel even more unattainable, but she wants to give it a go.
