I had to go for a interview for my law course..... it was not what i was expecting, it was relaxed and just a general chat. Thats the general feel i got from most of my friends aswell.
But that does depend on the course your getting interviewed for.
They're likely to ask why you want to do the course and what job you would like to do in the future.... oh and why do you want to study at their institution.
Thats all i was asked and i had all my law knowledge planned and everything and didnt need a thing of it tut.
Good luck you'll be fine, aslong as you got half a brain cell and found the university they should give you a offer. I bet now someone is going to totally disagree with what i have said but thats the general experience me and my friends have found.
thanks for that, im a bit less stressed about it now!
Its always good to go and look around the uni to get a feel for the place. Aslong as you have a idea of why you want to do the course and why you'd like to study there you will be fine.
And smart-casual clothing is best for these situations, there was one guy who was having a interview when i was and he was wearing a suit and you could see he felt like a pratt.
Oh and they often tell you if your accepted at the time of the interview.
Tell us how you get on
Good luck, mate!
thanks again to those who helped me out
Sounds just like my interview....well done!
they also ask the usual, why this subject, why this course, why here?
all you can do is be honest they like that (as long as you spent time thinking about where to apply and why it looks interesting to spend 3/4 years doing)
but one thing you must do is tell them not only why you want to do the course but also that "you want it"
people often do forget to say the simple reason of why they are there
