Harris Westminster Interview

I have been offered an interview for Geography and I wanted to know the best way to prepare for it. Has anyone else here been offered an interview for 2021 or in previous year? Please share any tips you may have for me :smile:

427 is great! And it was good enough for you to get an interview :smile:

I was happier with the fact that I got an interview that the score doesn’t matter to me. You’re great for getting this fat :smile:

Don't worry, 427 is an amazing score! (You got in, unlike so many others)

I’m applying from Harrow! It’ll be a slight commute but it could be worth it, have you applied to any other 6th forms?

Oh, I’ve heard Chemistry was pretty difficult, I took Bio and it was pretty easy (because it was MCQ lol)

Yes I have! LAE Stratford is my first choice, that’s the only school I think is really for me. I’ve also applied to HWSF, I will apply to Brampton (not that I’ll get in), Sacred heart, STAC, Kingsdale and some others. What about you?

Well, I’m looking into Watford Grammar for Girls, Henrietta Barnett, Grey Coat Hospital and Holland Park (along with a few others lol) :smile:

Also, I wasn’t aware that Sacred Heart had a Sixth Form

Oh, what a coincidence lol. In terms of grades, I’m looking into Holland Park and Henrietta Barnett, but I’m definitely interested in WGGS in terms of reputation, social life and academics. Still not 100% but WGGS seems like it has a great and supportive environment to me. Don’t want to sound weird lol but are you a boy, girl or other (like have you applied to exclusively boys/girls schools?)?
