Bath
LSE
Imperial
UCL

which you think are best?

Got an interview letter this morning!! yayy! so pleased...

Interview questions can ask simple questions on Economics (what do you understand by micro/macroeconomics?), Statistics (what is the difference between randomness and uncertainty?), or Mathematics.

One question that used to stump people was that:

Given a sequence $a_n$ which tends to a limit $a$, and $a_n \geq 0$ for all $n$, explain intuitively why $a \geq 0$.

Traditionally, people who couldn't do the Mathematics questions found it hard in MMORSE.

and in that presentation the guy actually says to you "unless you're not an axe murderer, we'll give you an offer".

Ok... I think this has gone far enough...

Totally Tom has been studying maths at Warwick for at least a couple of years. I'd be very worried if Narev's questions came up - I couldn't give a decent answer to the first two and the third is unfair for A-level students since they haven't learnt what a limit is.



That's implying that they only give offers to axe murderers?
