Abstract
CAMBRIDGE.—In the event—which seems most probable—of the report of the Board of Natural Science Studies being adopted by the Senate, the Natural Sciences Tripos will, in and after 1881, be divided into two parts, each of which will include a practical examination, and will extend over five days. The names of those who have passed the first five days will be alphabetically arranged in three classes, although this part of the examination will be considered to test only the general proficiency of candidates in several branches of science. The subjects will be grouped thus: (1) Chemistry, (2) Physics, (3) Mineralogy, (4) Geology, (5) Botany, (6) Zoology and Comparative Anatomy, (7) Physiology, (8) Human Anatomy and Physiology.
