How was the preview exercise? and how much do they ask about your personal statements (do they ask about book you have said in ps?)
Pre-interview
I found that the pre-interview was alright as I could discuss quite a lot about it. All you need to know is the general steps to answer design questions and you'd be able to talk a lot about them.
I got asked about my personal statement for about 50% of the entire interview, because there's time needed on general questions, pre-interview exercise, and a maths question.
I didn't really talk about any books into detail in my personal statement so I'm not quite sure about that, but I didn't get asked about the one I briefly mentioned.

Any tips for answering design related questions?
Hey all, I had my interview 4 weeks ago, if anyone has any questions relating to it I'd be happy to answer! (Won't give away anything too specific though!)

my interviewer didn't ask me about anything in my personal statement at all as far as I can remember.
