Definitely more technical, in some ways I found the questions more challenging than some of the questions I got asked in my Cambridge interview. It does depend on the interviewers tho.

Thank you, it was challenging as it was my first time doing something like that. Looking back, I think it was a nice equal mix between my personal statement and academic questions. The whole day overall was quite relaxed and chill. I spent most of the time outside of the interviews talking to the other applicants about casual things like what London nightlife was like and all that which I think definitely relaxed me before the interview. I didn't read much other than How Chemical Reactions Happen but that's a standard book really and pretty much everyone there had a copy with them, it was quite amusing really hahaha


That sounds pretty good, really hope I get an interview!:smile: I saw from the other post you wanted to change courses, so what are you applying for this year?

Good luck! I'm applying to Chemical Engineering this year - it's more competitive but I hope I get an interview with the grades I got.

Thanks! Good luck to you too!:biggrin: What made you want to change from Chem to Chemical Engineering btw?

Just decided that I preferred an engineering-based discipline really. I had a better focus on what I wanted to do in a career doing ChemEng than Chem.

I'm taking maths, physics, art and AS further maths. My school already changed to the new linear A levels so I haven't actually done AS except maths (I got an A). How about you?

They're sending out Chemistry interviews too!
physics applicants, don't stress out waiting for an interview, it took me 3 months to get my interview so yeah
once again, I am a physics fresher this year, feel free to ask me anything! (pm pls) cheers
Hi, so I applied for straight physics, but now as I'm thinking about it, my personal statement turned out to be more mathematical than it probably should have been. Now I wish I applied for physics with theoretical physics. Should I change it in track or email the admissions team? Or maybe leave it as it is?
