UCL Interview

Hey all!

I have got an interview at UCL next week for Archaeology, I am not sure what to expect, any ideas?
I was mainly wondering if its more knowledge based or personality based..
Thanks so much :smile:

eeeeek i have one too! for french and italian, on the 9th! my email said that i should be prepared to discuss what i've been studying and books i've read, but then for archeology i'd expect they'd just want to see the extent of your knowledge so far?

My interview at UCL was a lot more personality based, but that's due to the subject I was studying in. I'd reckon that Archaeology would be personality based with a decent level of knowledge on the time period you are most interested in and general knowledge on Archaeology itself.

My interview at UCL was purely personal statement based...with slightly odd forays into my social life, but a friend of mine who had an interview for the same course with a different interviewer was asked application questions from what she had written on her ps.

Depends who interviews you, but make sure you can talk about all aspects of your personal statement.

Something reasonably smart, but not a suit. The girls there mainly wore skirt/trousers and a nice top.
