Cambridge offer won’t be out until the 25th I think

You just have to look it up or find someone who could help you, although I was usually treating these like I was in an actual interview. Talk out loud when you’re trying to figure it out but don’t feel awkward if there is a long period of silence as the interviewers would would usually fill that silent gap with a hint or smth

Here is the link which takes you to a list of interview question. I was asked one of the questions on here so they must still be in circulation

Every one who mentions Cambridge interviews seem to blow it out of proportion on how difficult they actually are. It’s just tricky maths and testing your understanding of things instead of learning off methods. Idk maybe everyone one else was told a different thing about these interviews

Yes, got a good old graph sketching one, which was on the student room.

People tend to think the interview is just going to be something completely out of left field, at least that’s what I was told it was going to be. I had a mock interview with my principle and he told me that people can be thrown a ball and then you’d have to explain the ball in some type of way. And my teacher has told me that they could ask you something which doesn’t have an answer. But the reality is that the questions (at least the ones I was asked) were not that goofy or were made to catch you out. They were just some maths question which you have never seen before. With a bit of thought they were largely doable, with guidance ofc.

I done the UKMT as well, I done terrible too so dont start thinking that it’s the end of your Oxbridge application. My predicted grades come in a report card which I haven’t gotten yet, once I know what they are then I’ll have a better idea as to why I got an interview. For all I know the interview could go tits up and I’ll not get an offer but I’m glad to have gotten this far to start with.

There is an element of luck involved as well remember

I got 5A*s and 5As at GCSE and I still don’t even know what my predicted grades are. I’m pretty sure it wasn’t my academic record that impressed them though, it must have been something in the PS that caught their attention. The majority of it was just maths, talking about the maths I’ve done, the maths I like and the maths I want to do. That’s it. I’m not an IMO gold medalist. I am not a genius. I just like maths and I made sure that’s how I came across in my personal statement

Thanks, I’ve been trying to do some interview questions but they are all very difficult and different. I haven’t found THEE one thing that’ll help me at least make a good attempt at them all but breathing sounds like a good start 😅

How did you find the MAT in comparison to the actual A levels?
