My Cambridge Master's interview experience & tips

In this video I talk about how I prepared for my Master's interview at Cambridge University and what my interview was like.

I really wanted to make this video because I couldn't find anyone talking about their Cambridge Master's interview nor preparation tips, so I hope this video helps you. Note that each interview is unique and different courses may have different interview formats.

Will all the shortlisted applicants be interviewed? Quite an ambiguous question there, but I read in my application that not all the prospective candidates would be interviewed, as most likely interviews won't happen often.
M.Phil in Archaeological Science aspirant here. Great content, all the best.

Hey Ilya! Loving the vids. Do you think there are any advantages/disadvantages of applying to an integrated masters course, as that is what I am rather than applying to do BA then Masters seperately?

[ElinaHuseynzada]

Thank you very much, this is the video I was looking for! I have a question and would be grateful for your answer. As far as I understood, you didn't have any technical questions, and did you expect that or usually interviewers don't ask them to graduate applicants?

If you’re applying for a Masters degree course when you’re in sixth form and you get accepted do you then also have this application process for the Masters?

Hey Ilya ! I really like the videos ! I wanted to ask what do you think are the chances of getting into Oxbridge or Imperial with Maths, Chemistry and English Language if i do meet the grades? I am just worried that I don't do all sciences for a chemistry degree and unis will think its weird that I did something like English when i want to apply for science ? I really like the videos and it will be cool to see vlogs haha

Hi, Thanks for you the video. I have an admission from Bedfordshire University Luton and Cardiff University. I am confused about which city is better in terms of finding a part job, cost, safety. Could you please help me out with this?
