FAQs
Got some questions about the Oxford Material Science Premium Programme? You might just find the answer here. If not, you can always reach out to us and we’ll be happy to help!
Why is the Programme only for Oxford Material Science?
Cambridge does not offer the option of studying a single science subject, and instead offer a Natural Science course, so if you want to focus on just one subject you will have to study at Oxford.Â
You can learn how we can support you in your Cambridge Natural Sciences application on our Natural Sciences Programme page.Â
What Intensive Courses are part of the Material Science Programme?
As part of the Oxford Physics Programme, you will have a place on the Personal Statement, Interview, and PAT Intensive Courses.Â
What is the Ultimate Oxford PAT Collection?
The Ultimate PAT Collection is made up of our three PAT books in one helpful tome, with The Ultimate PAT Guide, PAT Practice Papers, and PAT Worked Solutions.Â
What is the PAT Academy Course?
The PAT Academy is a set of pre-recorded lectures and videos which take you through the PAT exam from start to finish. This course serves as a fantastic starting point for your exam, and also provides some more advanced tips.
