Hi all,
this Friday I have an interview for a taught master's course at Oxford in Mathematics and Foundations of Computer Science. To prepare, I have made sure that I can:
1. Talk about my dissertation.
2. Talk about things I mentioned on my application.
3. Got an idea of what the interviewers research.
I'm doing my Mathematics undergraduate, and although I've been doing well, I'm scared that they will ask me questions about things I haven't seen on my course but that they would expect an undergraduate from a 'top ten' university to know.
So I'd like to ask
- do you think they'll ask many questions about things I would be expected to know but haven't seen on my course, or will they more likely ask about my dissertation and things I've mentioned on my application (papers I've read, a summer school, interest in the field)?
- does anyone have any general interview advice?
Thanks in advance
