Official Oxford interview invitation thread
Watch
Hi everyone! Now that tests are over I thought I could start this thread for when interview invitations come in. Comment below what courses you want to study and what college you have applied to also any other thoughts and feelings toward the interview/your chances?

Course: Physics and Philosophy (MPhysPhil)
College: Balliol
Thoughts: Well.... after the PAT I honestly have no chance at the interview...(praying that I wrote enough workings down for them to see that I attempted the questions as best as I could) But I'm not too distraught about it since I love the Manchester course so much, plus the Manchester interview went well so I am fairly confident in an offer from them

Course: Chemistry
College: St Hilda’s
Thoughts: Can’t really tell how the TSA went, but hoping for an interview, as it seems over 90% of Chemistry applicants are interviewed on average...

yeah it's good to know that you have offers from elsewhere because not getting into oxford is not the end of the world. Same with me I have UCL and Warwick which I'm so happy with

Course: Medicine
College: New
Thoughts: Definitely will not be getting an interview. BMAT went awfully (certainly for Oxford's standards anyway) and below their average A*s at GCSE.

Course: Mathematics and Computer Science
College: LMH
Thoughts: After my dire performance at the MAT I think I have no chance of getting invited to interview, especially considering that my GCSE’s are also below average. Shame but fingers crossed Durham will give me an offer at least.

I am slightly ok with the idea of not getting accepted into Oxford (because it is extremely hard) but I still would like an interview to know that I was capable of at least getting that far.

Course: English Language and Literature
College: Trinity
Thoughts: I don’t think my ELAT was a complete disaster but I doubt I’ll get a score good enough for an interview invite. I already have four offers though so I honestly won’t be too distraught if (or when lol) I get a rejection.
