Imperial chemical engineering interview 2024

Original post by -M-M-K-

Was it really that bad, what kind of questions did they ask if you don’t mind me asking? We’re there any ice breakers or straight into technical questions?

For the other people being interviewed, I heard there were a couple of generic questions such as why Chem eng, etc. For me, my interviewer just asked me one question about my statement and then dived into some pretty difficult technical questions. It was 2 physics questions and one chem question

That’s mad honestly, I’m assuming you did physics for a level? Because I didn’t and I’m worried they might expect me to know a level physics content if I get an interview

Yes, I do Physics A Level but I am sure that if you don't do it they won't ask you a question on it.

Got rejected 😭 i blame how i hadnt even covered thermodynamics and they kept asking me questions abb that... anyways we move

Did they tell you why you got rejected? Or was it just a straight-up rejection? Sorry for asking but I am waiting for a response from them and am just really nervous.

Honestly I just started with my genuine interest in maths and chem, added in some super-curricular things to do with maths and chem, went on to talk about my passion for making things through the application of physical laws, extra curricular activities and linking them to chem e. Btw what I told you before about the interviews is what I’ve gathered from information online, I could very well be wrong. If I am though please do correct me

Does it matter that much if someone has 4 a stars or 3 a stars as their predicted grades?

I got asked to sketch a graph and like a weird chem/ maths question about distillation
