A LIVERPOOL student has landed a place at Cambridge NEXT year.
Daniel Barnett, of Childwall, will read engineering at Jesus College after achieving excellent A-level results.
The 17-year-old gained two A*s in maths and modern Hebrew and As in chemistry, physics and further maths.
Daniel, who was a sixth form pupil at Manchester's King David High School, said: "I am a little apprehensive, but, more than anything, I am really excited."
The son of Nadia and Mike Barnett, will start at Cambridge in October 2011, as he is taking a year out to work in Scottish Power's investment planning department on the Wirral.
Daniel, a member of Childwall Hebrew Congregation, said: "I was not too surprised with my results because I got what I predicted. Cambridge was always my first choice. It will be a refreshing, but daunting experience."
