short. Goes by so quick, that was my second Ucl one so I guess it wasn’t too bad. 2 male interviewers, 5 minutes to go through my entire portfolio, then 15 minutes of questions. Interviews are 20 minutes and mine finished by 20.36 (recorded it). So they’re pretty strict with time. If you don’t finish explaining your portfolio in 5 minutes they will cut you off, btw. Nothing extraordinary tbh if you’re well prepared you’ll be fine.

what type of questions do they ask? how should someone prepare and what should we do?

Know your portfolio like your life depends on it. And be ready to expand on points you’ll make in the interview. Once you’ve made your portfolio, make answers to several practise questions to prepare you for the actual interview

Basic questions about your interest in architecture and why UCL- nothing crazy, can’t share that on here regardless but like the other person said, know your portfolio like the back of your hand.
To prepare, brainstorm possible questions about both your portfolio and architecture in general on a google doc and have answers prepared. Run over your portfolio as many times as you can and try to fit it within 5 minutes.
Again, they only ask about 5 questions so don’t overthink it.

Hello, please could you let me know what types of questions they asked, I have my interview on the 28th. Also was the first 5 minutes literally just explaining all of your projects independently? Thanks

About 20% of people get an interview, by the way. Then 11% (roughly) get an offer.
I had my interview last week, applied in mid October with A*AA predicted grades. If you submitted in late December, don’t sweat it. They have until May to keep interviewing. They are still interviewing people that applied in October/November.
Good luck
