2k

Question
Hi, I want to get a rowing scholarship to Cambridge University. I am a freshman girl. I am 5'6" and about 120 lbs. My 2k is 7:19. I'm from the US so i was wondering if that will affect my application. Also i know i am a lighty in the US, but how does that compare to England? So can i get a scholarship and what do i have to get my time down to to make it?

Answer
Hi Sarah: That's a great time.  I don't think your 2K would be an issue if you got accepted.  Your on-water experience also needs to be very impressive.
