Cambridge Mathematics needs a level 1 in both STEP II and III to be sat with A levels at the end of year 13.
To make it worthwhile applying for Cambridge Mathematics, is there a measure of where a student should be achieving at the end of year 12?
He is taking maths and further maths A levels, but obviously hasn't finished the course yet. There is no point applying to Cambridge IMO if he can't be fairly sure of getting the STEP grades, but how can we judge this now?
I know Cambridge have interviews and only 50% get the grades in STEP because Cambridge set the boundaries that way. But he needs to know if taking this punt is worth it. Worse case scenario is getting through application and interview, having Cambridge as firm choice and then failing to achieve the STEP grades by some distance. Insurance choices will not guarantee accommodation!
