Without a doubt, it can be considered very tough to get into the University of Cambridge MPhil courses as an Indian applicant.
The Cambridge admission criterion is quite tough and competitive for applicants. As per the latest stats, the acceptance rate for the Cambridge MPhil was barely 50%.
To get in, the students don't only have to be academically strong but also really good with research.
