Oxford MSc Integrated Immunology Interview

I haven't been assigned to a college yet.

Congrats Maja😘

Thanks! Now on to applying for student loans and submitting thousands of documents woohoo

Do students loans cover all of tuition fees?

Any one else recieved college place?

Has anyone had the Skype interviews on Wednesday?

Hello Stellarivoy,
I am a medical graduate from Sudan
So professor Austyn firstly asked me about why did I study Medicine. Aaah he also asked me about why I joined the course and what are my career plans.
Then he moved me to Dr. Ross Sadler and he asked me about basic immunological concepts like: the cascade of events that happen when you injure yourself, what happens in the lymph node, types of T cell and subclasses of T helpers, cytokines secreted by cells, also some genes and what they encode in the immune cells.. he also mentioned SCID and the defect behind but I stumbled on that and I told him I had forgotten it but made my guess to answer it anyway..
Lastly Ms Athena asked me about my statement of purpose and the things I mentioned there like Rheumatoid Arthritis from immunological point of view, how cancer cells evade immune response and as I mentioned activating some immune check point she asked me about to mention them.
Lastly they discussed funding resources.
In conclusion I think they are going to ask every candidate to demonstrate background knowledge, and then questions that are specific to the SOP.
They also tend to form questions actually from my own answers, so every single word you mention really counts.
I stumbled on approximately 2 questions, I still got an offer thank God!
Most importantly, my interview was pretty informal as they were really welcoming and nice, and told me to ask any questions that I might have at any time.
I already love them and I hope Oxford would offer me a scholarship.
Best of luck
