11. But do say something memorable

Rosemary Bennett says: “Get something in that is memorable because they see so many people. Say something that’s going to stick in their mind. The most wacky thing you have done, they are looking for rounded people, not just people who are studying relentlessly for A-Levels. Have something to say that isn’t studying – something not to do with school work because they are looking for someone with wider interest. Something that shows you’re not a cookie cutter exam person.”

12. Answer the question but ask if you don’t understand it

Dr Rhodri Lewis an English tutor at Oxford University says: “Do answer the questions you're asked directly and with any pertinent examples you have to hand; stick rigorously to the point. Don't bluster and attempt to download pre-fabricated answers onto questions that don't warrant them. Do ask if you don’t understand the question rather than attempt to answer questions that you don't understand.”

13. Show off your broader knowledge

Dr Lewis advises: “Do show evidence of having read and thought broadly around your subject, moving well beyond the A-level syllabus. Do show an interest and awareness in the Oxbridge course you're proposing to read.

Don't, if asked about the fifth act of Othello, say that you haven't got round to that part of the play in class yet. Don't make it look like you're desperate to get into Oxbridge come what may, and that you've no great interest in your proposed subject of study.

14. But don’t show off

Dr Lewis warns: “Don't try to be wisecracking smart-Alec; You may well be as clever as you think you are, but your interviewers are often pretty intelligent too, and become rapidly bored with this sort of showboating.”

15. Don’t panic

“Keep thinking, even when you find yourself in the stickiest of corners; interviewers want to find out how your mind works, not to trick, humiliate or otherwise expose you,” says Dr Lewis.
