Is there an interview practice thread?

Anyway, I'll chuck it in here.

Cambridge interviewees -- practice qu's

General: If you had to write a dissertation tomorrow; discuss what you'd write it on and the potential problems you'd need to consider.

Macro: What are the benefits of Keynesian AD/AS theory and what are the limitations?

Micro: (since I know many of you would've wrote Game Theory down as an interest) Would a Nash equilibrium be useful to predict outcomes?

Maths: In micro, 'theory of the firm' behaviour, what could this function refer to:

z = py - (a + by^2)

i.e. what is z, py, a and by^2 ? What does

p=2by

refer to? (considering

\frac{d}{dy}(by^2) = 2by

I think quite often they wouldn't care if you get the answer right or not, they just want to know your thought processes. Just talk through it and try to be logical about what you say. Good luck all.

Yep AAA ...but they said that or AABB

I got an AA offer from Bristol yesterday, so Southampton didn't include the A* I already have...
I might email them about it, and they said AABB when I'm doing 3 A2s now.

Well done on your offers too! :smile:
