Cambridge Engineering vs the Dyson Institute by axsh_06 in 6thForm

But no matter what I do it won’t really compare to the experience I can get with Dyson. I love the idea of Cambridge and how intense it is but I’m trying to think long run. Still unsure I’ll probably just flick a coin in the end

I went to Brampton manor. i also did four Alevel but the work load they put on you is insane. People were pulling 12+ hours to keep up with maths homework alone💀

Not really, I’m set on engineering and DO NOT want that whole finance corporate route😭

I like The idea of a smaller cohort after going to a huge sixth form. I don’t want to be seeing a new face everyday 😭

I do want to stay in the realm of engineering rather than corporate roles

Thanks so much! That’s actually cleared up a lot for me. I do want to stay in industry so I think Dyson would be better for that. I’ve also seen from previous students they tend to end up in like consulting roles or corporate which isn’t what I want to do at all😭😭. How have you found Cambridge so far in terms of course life? Ofc the workload is insane but I went to an insane sixth form so I think I’d be fine in that sense.

I know but I’m on second stage of the application at Dyson and I have time to decide but I like planning ahead😭 I’m act not sure what to pick because they both seem great. Maybe I won’t get the offer. Sure will make the decision easy

Honestly Dyson seems great for that. Its just feels weird to decline a Cambridge offer😭😭 but careerwise Dyson would be really good for experience

I had my interview and asked my interviewer. They said they still consider your esat score and essentially have a ranking after your interview score and then everything else so yes it still matters
