Social Sciences Leeds university interview

I have been given a telephone interview from the university of Leeds for the foundation year in social sciences and was wondering what questions they may ask anyone have any ideas?

Mine was really simple to be honest, they hardly asked me any specific questions and I just felt like I was asking them more questions than they asked me. Just be confident, make sure you know what pathway you want to go through because that could be a question they ask. Make sure you have a read of the course information and have any questions about that ready. It was really chilled and easy so don’t stress! Hope it goes well!!

Overall it was good it was more of a confirmation call they’ll ask u why you want to do the course, why Leeds, if your accommodating or commuting and why, why your interested in the course, what skills you have etc don’t worry if you don’t know the answers as long as you meet the requirements your in best of luck.

Just in general I linked mine back to my course and spoke about how I’ve currently studied psychology and sociology and how they will help me as I have knowledge of those subjects soon after I realised that didn’t really answer the question lol but it’ll all go smoothly your answers won’t impact your position so your good to go.
