Oxford biomed interview tips (Lincoln college in particular)

First time posting here, so hi everyone!

I’ve received an interview invite from oxford for biomedical sciences. I’ve never expected to reach this point (I thought I had fully funked the BMSAT admissions test) and while I’m really proud of myself, I’m also very nervous for the interview. I wanted to ask for interview advice from anyone who’s studying biomed (or sciences in general) at either Lincoln or other ox colleges right now!

I heard that the format of the interview is quite unconventional; apparently there might be a complete lack of diagrams/graphs to analyse, which isn’t what I expected..? Anyhows, I don’t want to go into the interview and be completely surprised, so Id like some insight on what the interviews would be like.

Any advice is appreciated!

Interview formats can't be shared - it'd give unfair advantage
