Imperial chemical engineering interview

hi i'm also applying for chem eng(cambridge(probs rejection),imperial(A*A*A*),UCL(AAA),Nottingham(AAA), Shefiield(AAA)). I'm probs gonna put imperial as firm and ucl as insurance even though i've spoken to people currently doing chem eng at UCL (2nd years) and they all said not to come. In terms of imperial interview, try and find something in chem eng that you're passionate about, for me it was the research side. They'll give you an academic question on maths and chem. Hard maths q+easy chem q or super easy maths q+super hard chem q. I got the easy maths and hard chem q but then again difficulty is subjective. It's all based on A-level/AS level content, I didn't get any personal statement q's but apparently one person did. Surprisingly i messed up the math's q and did well in the chem so i got the typical offer of 3A*'S (doing three alevel's: maths,chem and physics + AS further maths). Most likely you'll get 2A*2A offer. (unless you do really bad in your interview that they're not sure then they may increase it).

Thanks a lot😉Hopefully I’ll do well in my interview and wish you can obtain 3a*s, then we’ll be classmates hah

hopefully, sorry I would give specific q's i got but i'll get banned by student room for doing that.

But may I ask why you still choose ucl as insurance

I can go from home (I live in london so 40 min train journey), the uni itself is great in terms of the vibe and opportunities they give, plus they do have prestige on a international level. Ik people who go there who say that some aspects of the course are still fun as long as you hang out with the right people. I chose it over the other unis cause they're all far and standard of teacher is quite equal except for nottingham which is apparently slightly better.

Thanks again! So I guess except for Oxbridge and imperial, other unis are quite the same for chem eng.

I guess so, btw what other uni's did you apply for other than imperial and manchester?

Edinburgh, Nottingham and ucl, we have very similar choices)

You gonna come over for any of the applicant days?
