  • STEM Escape Adventure

Come and visit Homerton at the end of the day to participate in our incredible “STEM Escape Adventure”. We have over 200 fiendish puzzles set up around the college that will test your analytical thinking skills. Many are based upon Cambridge interview questions and will help you to develop the attributes that we look for in applicants to Cambridge.

You can play the game on your own, or as a team, and win some great prizes! It also doesn’t matter what subject you are applying to study at University; there are puzzles for all disciplines. If you solve enough puzzles, we’ll invite you back for a special awards ceremony later in the year, where you can play the full game, and even enter our fiendish endgame: “The Maze”. 

Please watch the promotional video below. You will then need to decide: will you be able to triumph in “The Search for the Scientist’s Secret”? https://youtu.be/20YdP4qeIGg
