my interview was on morality and whether it was innate or not, what was yours on?
is this thread for both summer schools or just PPE?

mine was on performative activism and BLM, mostly political but Robin was super nice

The question I was asked was 'Be honest, what is a viewpoint you hold that your peers would be against? I will not judge you for it" He then asked me to define illness.

He asked me the same question as Melissd678, I think it's probably the one he's asking. Don't worry about the interview its a really fun and relaxed discussion

Hi everyone, I've been accepted to the PPE programme however due to Covid it doesn't seem likely I'll be able to attend. I've offered the option to deffer but I'm a bit unsure as to what to do. Anyone in the same boat?

FAIR WARNING - do not waste yyour money on this course. The management is absolutely horrid - there was an email sent out to just the girls essentially slut shaming them (shocker - no one was dressed inappropriately) and after outrage, the admissions lady had to apologise for it - straight up weird that that happened. Another a lecturer, who was a massive ***** anyway, made inappropriate comments to one of the girls. Loads of people were sent home because 15 year olds were doing bits with 18 year olds and another girl got assaulted and the director did nothing about it. police had to come over and everything. absolute shambles of a time.
