Oxbridge interviews have bad press - many students are under the impression that they will be expected to know obscure facts or regurgitate excessive amounts of details. This couldn’t be further from the truth - Oxbridge interviews are designed solely to assess your potential and motivation for your subject- everything else is an extra.
"What will I be asked at my Oxbridge interview?". This is a question we repeatedly get asked and instead of TELLING you, we wanted to SHOW you.
To do this, we asked our Expert Oxbridge tutors to stage a 'good' and 'bad' interview. The results are here for you to see!
Each interview ends with feedback that is provided at the end of all our mock interviews.
The "applicant" looks older than the interviewer lol
He was a remarkable applicant very able to think on his feet. It would not surprise me to see him as a PhD one day.
barlart most successful cambridge accepted candidates will be at this level. He is not remarkable by their standards.
barlart this is a reinactment by a current student
This is nothing like a Cambridge interview.
3.14 In a dominant disease, if a parent has the homozygous dominant gene, it is 100% chance for his/her offspring to inherit the disease, not 50% （ i guess )
Interviews is missing the r.
Sickle cell anaemia is a co-dominant disorder, not a recessive one.
Beg to differ, it is an autosomal recessive inherited disease
@lai it is co dominant on the molecular level and recessive on the general phenotype level.
@@sevahj6736 At A level standard I think they'd accept it anyway as it is never suggested to be anything otherwise, so at least for the purposes of the video it should be fine.
i thought that red would have the longest wavelength and blue would be shortest, didn't she get that wrong?
Timothy Katsumoto she did get it wrong. Blue light has the highest frequency and, therefore, from v= f*lambda we know that it has the shortest wavelength (as v can not be different). I find it helpful to think that, as 'Radio' and 'Red' both start with an R and I know that Radio waves have a high wavelength and low frequency the same can be applied to Red light in comparison to other colours of visible light.
Very interesting topic and a lot of good information to know and learn from. Definitely worth to explore it deeper as possible 🤔👋👍😀 Thank you @superman 👍👍
The questions were like 11th grade level in France WTF...
Felix Dupas well the questions are easier than the real interviews for the sake of clarity for those watching. The actual interviews are generally much harder. And besides, people having their interviews are at 12th or 13th grade anyway.
These are 10th grade in UK questions
@@Jiggy77XD 11th and 12th grade level questions - 12th grade is Year 13 also known as final year in England and senior year on the grade system
i believe that the objective of an interview is moreso to observe the applicant's avidity towards their chosen course and to assess their approach to a given problem than their capacity to identify the solutions to difficult questions.
‘InteRviews’ - for an Oxbridge video you should be getting your spelling right smh
An American interviewing Oxbridge applicants...
Andy Feynman You don't know if she's American. :P
+Coconut Crab It also isn't relevant.
+Andy Feynman She is a real Cambridge postgraduate (and also not American)
UniAdmissions slayed...
Well it's a shame she learnt American English then.
this is for undergrad?
yes.
Yes, but they are extremely easy questions
