we’re not allowed to share any questions we got, they’re really strict about that😭 you obviously know the two tasks that have to be prepared in advance, which they lay out on the website - other than that, just look at some common dent interview questions and hot topics, that’s what i did to prepare

Where did you buy your matchbox and also any examples you can give me on how to decorate and what with
Do not discuss the content of any interview you may have had. By doing so you are inadvertently aiding others who may take your place and if the University in question finds out they may remove you from the course for dishonest conduct.

The matchbox thing is a test of your manual dexterity and ingenuity and a chance to show your skills.

i couldn’t find a matchbox that fit the dimensions they required so i just bought some thick card and made it myself (like i drew the net of a cuboid like the ones we did in like year 6 and folded it myself). for the decorations literally just go crazy with it, it’s supposed to be YOUR matchbox - make it look how you want it to. best of luck! :smile:

Hi, I’ve got mine then too. I’m really struggling with what to put in matchbox. How are you preparing for the interview?
