I got an offer! This video really helped me and definitely put my mind at ease before the interview process (I was completely stressed out!) Can't wait to be there!! (Obviously working hard for the offer now though!)

What was the test like pre-interview? What kind of questions could come up?

[@oxfordfromtheinside3680]

Great question! The questions asked can very between colleges, but they could include some maths/calculations, some short answer questions about your subject, or longer, discussion questions to get you thinking. :)
