What is the best way to prepare for my interview?

The most important thing to remember when preparing for your interview is that you are not expected to be able to answer everything and a key area that the interviewer will be looking at is how you react to being given help and new information. Do not be scared to ask for help and treat the interview as a two way conversation. It can be hard to prepare for interviews as the range of possible questions are so great but it is important to make sure that if you are asked any questions related to your personal statement then you are able to go into sufficient detail. Analyse your personal statement one sentence at a time and think about possible questions you could be asked on it and how you can expand on any points you do make. It is also a good idea to make sure you are comfortable with the content of the subjects you are currently doing at school as well as preparing answers to some standard questions such as why you have chosen that particular university or degree.
