Basically I've got an interview tomorrow at UCL and just wanted to ask whether anyone had any advice/tips for me. Cheers in advance.

I am going for quite a specialist course though so I think its the best option for me.

Best of luck. I hope you've got £27,000 handy.

Ask if they'll give you a discount

Then why ask for advice, if you're just going to ignore it? |

Be enthusiastic about whatever you're saying, but don't interupt and listen carefully to the questions.
Wear a short skirt and a low cut top.

I didn't ask for advice on if uni was a good idea or not. Read my first post again. |

Remember that all interviews are a two way process. They're assessing you, but you're assessing them as well - so make sure you have prepared questions relating to the points that are important to you. (This will demonstrate your commitment/interest as well.)

I've got questions about the facilities and the course itself. Any other things I should ask about? Career opportunities afterwards? |

Is this a proper interview for a hard to get onto course or a nice tour around the uni like all the interviews I had back in the day? If the former relax, be positive and know clearly why that's the degree for you. If the latter just relax and work out which pub you're going to on the way home.
