How Oxford interviews applicants.
What to expect at a Oxford interview
Traditional or Panel Interviews consist of being asked questions around your application itself (Personal Statement, school work, work experience) and your reasons for wanting to study Medicine. These questions are asked by a panel of two or more Oxford tutors.
What makes Oxford different
Oxford admissions tutors look to see if a candidate matches with criteria such as personal integrity, leadership potential and evidence of self-motivation. At an Oxford Medicine interview, students may be asked questions like "why do we have red blood cells?" or "should the NHS treat people who smoke?".
