How do you impress at an Oxbridge interview?

The key thing Oxbridge interviewers want to see is that you are teachable. They don't expect a finished product. They are looking for potential. They are looking for someone willing to think through problems, take on board new ideas and apply them to their thinking, and always discover ways to develop their points.
