[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Isn't Oxford a pretty simple "submit your scores, get admitted if they are high" application? [/quote] No, the published score requirements are the minimum to even apply. They are necessary but not sufficient. its the first level of weeding out. If you pass that bar, then you take specific oxford admission tests, content varies depending on your course, and then they select a percentage of applicants for an in depth interview with actual professors in the major you are applying for. Interview is to see evidence you can handle oxford style tutorial learning, and probing your knowledge base and ability to think through things. Completely different approach than the US with its approach on “vibes” and being assessed by admissions officers who have no specific knowledge of your course of study but weigh your “personality” and “character”[/quote] BURN!!!! US AOs.[/quote]
