Anyone got a group interview from University of Reading for 2021 entry for Architecture?

My interview is tomorrow, what sort of questions could there be? I haven't been to a group interview for architecture, do you have any advice?

I had my group interview the 16th of February and got a offer the 9th of March! is there anything you would like to know about the interview?

This Reading interview was the first I've ever done, and if you know your stuff there's really nothing to worry about! The interview is set up on a video call, and the interviewer will ask you one by one things for example- why you chose architecture, which style and/or artist inspires you, what your favourite architecture style is, etc then they will get into more personal questions about each applicant's work. In my interview they did not ask us to present our whole portfolios, but to choose one piece/project that we are most proud of and one which we thought was difficult to create (as well as what we would change if we were to do it again!). We then explained the pieces and the reasons why we chose them. I believe it was fairly okay, they don't ask many specific things that you should prepare beforehand other than your portfolio so you're good to go! good luck!

Yes ,what did they do and how did you find it ? Was it more of like informal or formal and how many people did it include ?
Did they ask specific questions directly ?
I’m so nervous 😬

Did you hear back from them yet ? As in ,do they take long to tell you whether you got an offer or rejection ?

You can read the other comment i wrote in the thread, but to answer the other things I didn’t mention, I didn’t find it too formal, more of a chatty discussion about how interested you are in the subject and why you would make a good candidate. My interview included me and five other applicants, so the interviewer did not really ask anything specific unless you left out any important details about your work (for example, another applicant was asked about the material they used on one of their projects presented!)
So as long as you’re calm and confident everything is gonna go well! Good luck

Okay ,this really helps !! Thank you so muchhh😊

You’re welcome! how did it go?

Omg so is mine !! Is yours the 10:30 am one

It actually went pretty good ,it was only 2 of us getting interviewed so it wasn’t bad 😄

Hi! was the offer you received on march a conditional one or unconditional one. And were there any conditions other than the grades they wanted? (I'm thinking of applying for 2023 but I already achieved the grades so I'm hoping to get an unconditional offer earlier).Lastly, do you have any tips on what to say and do you mind if I can have a look at your portfolio or the page that you talked about just so I can get an idea of what they are expecting? (my previous interview was unsuccessful although the same portfolio got me into all the others I applied to
