This will seem like bragging...

This will seem like bragging, but in retrospect I really did rather well at Cambridge. These are the prizes and scholarships I was awarded over my four years:

• Emily Davies Scholarship (twice)
• Henry Tompkinson Scholarship
• Beatrice Mills Prize
• Rosalind, Lady Carlisle Prize
• Raemakers Prize
• Accenture Second Year Computing Prize
• i2 Ltd. Third Year Computer-Based Project Prize

Of course, those successes paled into insignificance alongside the accomplishments of some of my peers at certain prestigious inner-city colleges, but I think I did okay for a hick from the sticks (i.e. a Girtonian)!

Edit: I forgot to mention that I also blagged a (large) award from the academic funds for a plane ticket to a conference at MIT. But that was more of a success in terms of "social engineering" than actual engineering!
