I did mine on Friday. I guess the maths part was alright despite never seeing it before. They didn't really care about your answer. They really just wanted to see my thought process, and I think I displayed that well. I think I could have portrayed myself better in the more personal part of the interview through preparation. I mainly talked about my carer and academic goals and their interlinking with maths. If you haven't done it, try and think about how you would answer some personal questions so that you don't freeze. Do not even bother to try and prepare for the maths questions cause he just made them as we went along.

So there's absolutely no clue to finding out what kind of maths questions it'll be like? Is it an entirely new concept or is it GCSE-based and is it anything like the final section of the test difficulty-wise?

ICLMS is a sixth form not the uni
