Oxford Foundation Year - Admissions Test

I applied for the same thing. What are your stats

Did you get an interview? And What do you mean by stats?

Yes they sent an email to me on Monday. By stats, I mean your predicted grades and GCSEs.

Congrat! I don’t know my predicted grades teachers don’t inform us weirdly and my GCSEs were pretty average??? Two 6’s some 7s and 8. Why?

have you done your interview, how was it and what was it on

Nope not yet mines tomorrow

Same good luck, what subject are they interviewing tomorrow for you?

PPE, you?

Same, ive got my politics one tomorrow, which one do you have? It says it on top of the email

Same lol, and then ecom and philosophy tomorrow. Can’t believe the celebrity Dr Matt Williams at Jesus college is gonna interview me

I applied to PPE with a foundation year. There is a 2 part admissions test that is timed (45m each). How can I prepare for this?!

The honest truth is, you can’t actually prepare however question are quite straightforward. This is for PPE, I’m not sure about others but you gotta just have a good understanding of philosophy, politics and economics. The only difficult one was with Dr Matt himself who tries to twist questions on you to see how you think. Good luck!

What advice would you give applicants at this stage of the application process? How many students were accepted last year?
Thanks

I thoight there were 50 places available. Dud they increase them this year?
