Biology / Biological Natural Sciences Interview Preparation Guide
Struggling to figure out where to start preparing for your Oxford Biology or Cambridge Biological Natural Sciences Interviews?
This comprehensive Biology/Biological Natural Sciences interview preparation guide, created by U2's tutors who are Oxford and Cambridge graduates, is designed to help you stand out and increase your chances of success. It includes tips on presenting yourself, analysing problems, and communicating effectively during the interview. (This guide is also applicable if you receive an interview invitation from other top UK Russell Group Universities). You might also find our Chemistry Interview Preparation Guide useful, especially if applying to the Cambridge Natural Sciences course!
Key Features of U2 Tuition's Oxbridge Biology/Biological Natural Sciences Interview Preparation Guide:
Personal Statement Development: The guide begins by showing you how to demonstrate wider subject exploration in your personal statement and during your interview. Our tutors cover key course topics, recommended readings, and online resources, each with a thinking task. Ideally, this preparation should start a few months before the interviews to allow ample time to explore the resources thoroughly.
Personal Statement-Based Questions: Learn how to handle questions derived from your personal statement, as it often serves as a discussion basis in interviews.
Academic Interview Insights: Gain insight from accounts of two successful candidates: one from Oxford Biology and one from Cambridge Biological Natural Sciences. These accounts provide a detailed look into the interview process and the topics/questions they faced, including questions based on their personal statements.
Preparation Tips and Core Concepts: Receive expert tips and understand the essential concepts for the interviews.
Practice Questions: Engage with five in-depth practice interview questions, complete with discussion points and further reading suggestions.
Additional Questions: Access 45 more questions covering topics such as biodiversity, genetic engineering, evolution, conservation, taxonomy, food production/biotechnology, plant biodiversity, stem cells and cell differentiation, populations and ecosystems, chemistry calculations, and a few general interview questions. These are among the most common types of questions asked in Oxbridge interviews.
Final Success Tips: Benefit from final tips to ensure success in your interviews.
