Hi! I don't know about anyone else but I've been finding it hard to find other Oriental studies applicants on the Oxford 2020 official thread ( I guess because it's a kind of niche subject...) so I thought I'd start this, especially as interviews are only two weeks away!
so I was wondering what languages you've has applied for, what college you have an interview with and what you'd like to talk about in your interview?
I've applied to Japanese and I have an interview with Pembroke my personal statement is literature based and I've applied to a college which has a professor specialising in Japanese literature.
Glad to see an Oriental Studies thread! I applied for Japanese and my interview is at Hertford.
Cool! congrats on the interview! If it helps there's a Japanese applicant thread, (not solely for Oxford but a lot of the people on in have interviews too and applied for Hertford), called Applicants for Japanese 2020

Thanks! I'll definitely check out that thread, too!!
So am I, I was so worried everyone would be at Hertford or elsewhere! How are you feeling about the whole process? I’m so nervous!
I think everyone is pretty much at Hertford there's only three (including us two) that applied to Pembroke. And I'm really nervous tooo but kind of excited!

I’m sure there will be a couple of others as well when we get there, who is the other person at Pembroke?
Hey!I’m applying for the same course, same college and like you have got interviews starting tomorrow. Not going to lie pretty nervous about it all. Guess I’ll see you there!
