Oxford interview advice with Rosie Crawford! - University and Everything in Between 

Everyone who has ever got an offer from Oxbridge has their bit of sound advice on how to do a good interview - mainly because each of those people offers their personal example of how. As someone gunning for a spot, the more of those good interview experiences you hear, the more you will see certain themes in there, common to each and every person's words-of-wisdom. It's not rocket science. There is a method - the academic method - to adopt. An inquisitive mind, a 'never say die' attitude, where you'll go the extra mile - and then another mile on top of that - and a sense of humour when times get hard. And know your basics. Even if your attempt to get into Oxbridge goes awry and you don't make it in, which is a great pity and to be wept over, you've earnt the tears - those qualities I've mentioned will get you an offer from the other places you've applied to, as sure as night follows day. And I can tell you now, those 'other places' will be keen to have you aboard, as they truly and deeply want their fair share of the A* people, beautiful minds of their very own, to make it known, to all who can see, that Oxbridge is patently not the only game -in-town.
