Once you’ve sent through your UCAS application and the PAT/ENGAA/NSAA test is over and done with, you’ll be starting to think about Oxbridge interviews. Good news: we’re offering an interview preparation course with a difference.
High intensity. You’ll be interviewed in front of all candidates but also get to watch their interviews and answer the questions simultaneously.
So, if you’re looking to be grilled before the interview so that the actual interview is a breeze, we’re offering:
- Personal statement scrutiny – can you answer questions about everything you’ve written on your personal statement, from power plants to Quantum Mechanics
- Oxbridge-Tutorial-Style discussions of interview-style questions and answers.
- A 30 min interview with a highly experienced Physics Tutor and Cambridge graduate.
- The chance to watch everyone else’s interviews and get 10x the benefit – see what they are writing too and try the questions at the same time!
- Detailed and constructive feedback to improve.
- Plenary session to put feedback into practice.
- A question and answer session to ask all your burning questions about what an Oxbridge interview is like.
- Uniquely, we at The Oxbridge Formula specialise in Maths and Physics education. Unlike other generic Oxbridge Preparation organisations, we can provide specific guidance and help and we will be more than happy to answer any questions you have on the day.
What’s so special about the Oxbridge Formula Interview Day?
We will begin the day with an interview skills session. This will include a chance to have your personal statement scrutinised and an opportunity to practice answering questions about it. You will gain confidence and practice with Oxbridge Physics interview questions and answers, and you will be shown how to communicate your answers so that you are able to demonstrate your passion and potential in Physics or Engineering.
You will then get a 30 min interview, under pressure. But instead of receiving just one practice interview, you will get the opportunity to sit in on and observe every other student being interviewed to and get 10x the benefit. As each student will receive completely different questions to you, you will get to see a large variety of questions and try them out yourself too.
As Science and Maths are two of the only subjects where your written work is arguably as important (if not more important) than your verbal answers, we have a unique setup whereby the interviewee will be able to write his or her solutions, and the other students will be able to see what is being written, without the interviewee feeling unnecessarily intimidated.
You can analyse how you would have answered particular questions and compare your method to how others answered. You will be given access to a whole host of new interview questions, written by expert tutors from The Oxbridge Formula. As you’ll all have shared the same experience, you’ll be able to discuss questions together afterwards too.
Please note: this course is non-refundable and has strictly limited places
