METHOD & COVERAGE

Know what
the answer means.

Useful guidance starts with a clear account of the evidence, the limits and the remaining questions.

Review edition. Research reference: 2026-10-22. Academic sign-off remains pending for unapproved records. Data release: 2027.2026-10-22.1.

What is checked

The engine compares the information you enter with published academic baselines: grades, subject combinations, levels, supported qualification pathways and selected central College variations. Every requirement links to its official source.

Achieved results, predictions and plans have different statuses. Meeting a published baseline does not predict selection, an interview or an offer. Recommendations are not compulsory-subject failures.

Admissions cycles

The reference dataset covers applications in 2026 for 2027 entry. Cambridge expressly includes deferred entry in 2028. A new application in 2027 for 2028 entry is a different cycle. It remains provisional until its own requirements have been checked. No future test dates or deadlines are inferred.

What needs individual advice

Mixed awards, resits, transfers, previous university study, non-standard school routes, foundation programmes and qualifications outside A-levels, the full IB Diploma and APs are not fully automated. An unsupported qualification is not automatically an unaccepted qualification.

We show central published Cambridge differences, but do not certify all College policies. Minimum subject grades, unusual combinations, age/applicant restrictions and the terms of an actual offer may need further checks. Oxford college choice and deferred-course availability are not fully modelled.

English-language requirements, contextual admissions, fees, funding, immigration, fitness to practise and full selection assessment sit outside the academic baseline. Medicine includes a minimum-age prompt; an academic match does not override it. GCSE information is retained for your own record and is not converted into a fabricated selection score.

Sources and interpretation

Official university, department and College guidance takes precedence. Source extraction is followed by rule review and scenario testing. Ambiguous or qualified wording is retained as a clarification condition. Conflicting evidence must be resolved before the affected condition can be marked verified.

Some official pages were accessible through indexed official text rather than direct automated retrieval. This is recorded below and is part of the academic review. A retrieval date is distinct from an approval date.
