How do I prepare for my 'science' interview when applying for Medicine at Cambridge?

When applying for medicine at Cambridge - you will likely have two or even three interviews. One of these interviews is likely to be a bit more 'academic' or 'science-focussed' than the others. The purpose of this interview is mainly to see if you're a good fit for the style of teaching Cambridge offers. The key to preparing for this specific interview is recognising that you cannot read up on everything that could possibly come up, as the scope is huge. Instead, you should work on solidifying your understanding of the content of your A-level science subjects.The questions you will be asked will often require you to apply the knowledge you've acquired in school in a different way. The tutors are challenging you to figure out solutions to problems from first-principles, and they will guide you along the way. Don't get worked up if you're struggling - this is entirely normal! Just keep putting your ideas forward and don't give up - you will be surprised at how much you know.
