Has anyone heard about panel interviews?

How’d u mean? If u mean many people interviewing u at once, I had 2 interviewers and 2 other people who were mute with their cameras off on my one of my interviews.

It says on the interview timetable that we’ll have 2 colleges interview us, and then there’s a possibility of a panel interview next week which is made up of tutors from several different colleges. I was just wondering if anyone has got one yet? :smile:

So nervous - what does the panel interview actually mean?! How are you feeling?
Same here. I was hoping that someone who has been in our position will come along and give some advice. 😜

I myself wasn't selected for a panel interview but I've heard that you're selected if you're on the boundary of offer or rejected to give you one last chance (which is good I think!) OR that they randomly select people so they can standardise how they go about scoring the rest of the applicants. Either way you've been given another shot to show yourself off I hope it went well!

ur two colleges didnt give spots to u, but the department thinks ur strong enough to get an offer - so they pull u up again, alongside some other strong kids who also didnt get a spot in their two colleges, and they give u a second chance

this is basically whats being said in the report that keble college published lol
So would panel interviews then be for spots at colleges other than the ones you originally interviewed for?
