FIELD GUIDE

Preparing for and reviewing an interview

Practise reasoning aloud, listening carefully and responding to follow-ups.

Confirm the official format

Not every programme interviews applicants. Confirm whether there is an interview, its language and subject focus, and any official preparation guidance.

Practise with real experiences

Practise discussing the experiences in your application, academic interests and reasons for choosing the programme. For an unfamiliar question, explain what you understand, your assumptions and how you would investigate.

Turn feedback into the next task

Separate unclear content, incomplete reasoning and language issues. Choose one or two observable improvements per practice round, such as answering directly before adding an example.

This guide provides a planning method. Verify programme-specific eligibility, fees and dates against the relevant official edition.
