[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Cambridge is crazy competitive to get into, if your kid is not getting into HPYS he or she is not getting into Cambridge.[/quote] LOL. I know right? OP is in lalaland. [/quote] Not OP. But Cambridge doesn't take extracurriculars into consideration. Things like SAT 2s and AP exam grades count for admissions for US students, unlike most elite US schools. So a very high stat student who doesn't have that extra whatever that HYPS wants, could get into Cambridge, or Oxford, somewhat more easily.[/quote] Yes they do. I applied very far back but I had to have interviews when I applied to both Oxford and Cambridge. I went to an elite school where most students got straight As and they took one student from my school. I also recall essays. [/quote]
