<p>Sorry to hear about your TSA experience. </p>
<p>It's worrying. I thought Singaporean students usually chewed up and digested "Western" (e.g. the SAT) aptitude tests without experiencing the slightest indigestion. Why was it so tricky? </p>
<p>Which subject are you hoping to read at Oxford?</p>
<p>Hmm TSA was more like an IQ test than a normal examination. I would say Singaporean students are pretty good at aptitude tests that are based on academics, but TSA was more critical thinking and analysis. Personally I thought the essay part was more taxing because we only had 30 minutes to write a cogent, well-analysed and balanced essay. If you find the essay for SAT hard, this is worse. </p>
<p>I applied to cambridge for natural sciences :)</p>
<p>Does anybody know if people in India have to take tests/interviews? The Oxford Admissions Office said that they are only for 2nd undergrad degrees...but I see a lot of you here have scheduled interviews etc.</p>
<p>Did anyone else receive a letter from a specific college today? I submitted an open application, and I received a letter from Lady Margaret Hall.</p>
<p>Anyone get in? I got an offer a little while ago.</p>
<p>I will get my cambridge decision next week</p>
<p>Good luck!</p>
<p>(btw, I didn't apply to Cambridge b/c I think there's a second language requirement, and I only know English.)</p>
