Anyone else doing a physics interview?


I'm doing physics too! I'm so worried about this interview :frown: Do you have any idea what you might talk about?
Got an interview for physics! (changed from maths)
On the 13th at 11
Anyone know what to expect?
I didn't revise at all for the exams nor did I put any effort into them. I just went in to see where my capabilities could potentially take me. Started the exam relaxed but once I opened the paper I just laughed it was so hard. Left the room knowing that I failed. Turns out I got a interview! I did a exam in Maths and History.
My interview is in History.

I'm just gonna talk about why I love physics, and what fascinates me about it.

I thought we had to talk about one specific topic?

Economics,
Politics
(might change politics to physics)

Hello everyone, I was reading the 2014 forum and found the updated version. I took my exams in English Lit and History and I have an interview in English Lit.

I just emailed them, maybe wait a while, it took them a couple days to reply to me.

I'm reading one of their suggested books, written some notes on favourite poems, books and my passion for the subject. What about you? :smile:

I've read 3 of the books on the suggested reading list but I literally know nothing about poetry save for what I've done at school. Any recomendations for poetry?

Honestly depends if you prefer classic or more modern poets. Emily Dickinson for example or if you prefer more contemporary themes, you can find a poet who challenges or writes about themes on immigration etc
I've read Hamlet before but it's been some time now. Are you going to discuss it in the interview, like how will you arise the topic of the suggested reading you've done?
