/sci/ - Science & Math

Applying to Cambridge.
What books should I read to look good on my personal statement? Where should I find problems which enhance my problem solving ability which help during the interview?
Any other advice for improving my personal statement?

Hi /sci/ I plan to go to medical school after I graduate. I'm a bit unsure if I want to go after a major in Biology or Physics.

Physics will be around 26 credits more just because a lot of the pre-med required courses are already in the Biology curriculum.

I know that upper Physics courses can get very heavy and up to 20+ hours homework/week. But I don't know, seems like Physics is more useful since you relearn a lot of the Biology stuff in medical school anyway. I've only been at uni for one semester, got an A in my Calc I class and my cell biology class, neither of which I know reflect the work later on.

Physics seems like it really teaches you a way to think, where as the Bio curriculum seems like stuff I'll learn later on, what do you guys think?

Pic sort-of-related, off of google images, I do not attend Cambridge, I'm in the U.S.

Hey guys. I'm an English born kid who didn't get into my choice of university this year because of the massive increase in applications.

I have a question. How come universities insist on taking foreign students instead of offering the places to students of British nationality? There are so many transfer immigrants from China and the middle East it just blows my mind that these kids are getting priority over British people like myself.

Can anyone explain why this is the case? I don't understand. Why don't we want to make Britain great again by offering all of the places to UK students? I'm just sat at home learning nothing now when I should be using my brain while it's still young and capable of learning at a university in order to better myself and ultimately contribute to society.

Thanks.

I want to go to this University (cambridge)
any of you fags been here? what is it like?
it says it is as cheap as any other university
I want to study physics - what a-levels shall i take
(im 21 - i drope out and now retaking them)

ANY ADVICE WOULD BE GREAT!!
