Getting in oxford for international student

Hi, so I was wondering about how I should prepared myself if I want to get into Oxford.

I am currently studying in g10 (will end in 1 week) in Thailand (international school with american curriculum). Next year I will be studying AP Physics 1 and Calculus BC, and in g12 will be AP Physics 2 and probably Ap Chemistry.

So like what others thing should i be doing to prepared myself, like more AP? Or internship?

Also, how should I prepared for the PAT and interview part?

*Also, what's your opinion on UniAdmission?*

the entry test will be the most important part - your performance will basically make or break whether you get an interview. you need to make sure you meet any grade reqs on their website but doing more and more is probably not going to help anything. vocational experience like internships (assuming you mean stuff in a lab and not like in a bank or something) probably won't mean much for oxford but can be useful on the ps if you're applying elsewhere - if you did mean just general corporate internships they won't do anything for a physics related application

also, i know that this is the internet and i don't want to be *that* person but make sure you can express yourself clearly and fluently in english - even if you're a physics genius, if you can't properly communicate your ideas in the interview or decipher the questions in the PAT you won't be able to put your best foot forward

Are the entry requirements not 55555? 😧 in 5 different APs?

So I wonder which college you're applying to?

Are you applying for a joint Physics course or a just a standard Physics course? 😧
