<p>Clarification: the Cambridge Interview Questions link is for a company (it also runs the site “Oxford Interview Questions”) that sells help to prospective students (another is Oxbridge Applications). These sites provide a certain amount of info free, and it can be interesting to ferret around on their site. However, while the questions listed are most likely genuine, they are out of context, and the context matters (no, you will not be randomly asked what kind of trees Disraeli planted at his house!). You might find Oxfords own page more helpful: <a href=“http://www.ox.ac.uk/admissions/undergraduate_courses/applying_to_oxford/interviews/sample_questions_1.html”>http://www.ox.ac.uk/admissions/undergraduate_courses/applying_to_oxford/interviews/sample_questions_1.html</a></p>
<p>The inteviews are not one directional. For example, on the Geography section of the Oxford sample questions the tutor writes “A good candidate would, <strong>with assistance</strong>, begin to construct…” The tutors in the interview will ask follow up questions, designed to nudge the candidate in the right direction (or challenge them to think through what they have just said). </p>
