The Interview Primer Course is a course of pre-recorded lessons, designed to prepare students to answer Oxbridge interview questions. The course is available in four different versions, tailored for Mathematics, Computer Science, Economics, and Physics and Engineering. It distills data from hundreds of real interviews into a compact course filled with crucial material. Six video lessons, each lasting approximately 90-120 minutes, provide a systematic and thorough introduction to a broad topic that frequently recurs in interviews. Detailed lesson notes are also provided. Each lesson is accompanied by a worksheet of original problems, designed to ensure mastery of the concepts taught in the lesson. There are over 150 original questions in total, with solutions that provide a thorough analysis of each question. The on-demand nature of the course enables students to work at their own pace. Students who study the Interview Primer Course frequently report that many of their interview questions were familiar.

Past Oxbridge interview questions are not publicly available, and many interview questions listed online are inauthentic in style, so it is difficult for students to practice questions of the right style and difficulty. We have collected a large number of authentic interview questions from a range of Oxford and Cambridge colleges, from Mathematics, Computer Science, Economics and Physics/Engineering interviews. Students on the Vantage Interview Preparation programme gain access to a sunject-specific question bank of 80+ questions, all of which have been asked in Oxbridge interviews in the past three years. The questions have been carefully selected to provide a representative sample of the appropriate difficulty, and good coverage of the main topics that tend to arise. We provide detailed solutions that carefully deconstruct the problems and walk the student through every aspect of the thought process required to solve them. The solutions also place the problems in context, clearly explaining how aspects of the questions could be varied in another problem, and how one might deal with these variations.

It is essential that interview candidates are experienced at verbally explaining their thought process to difficult maths problems. The Vantage Interview Preparation Programmes includes a mock interview experience, which consists of two 30-minute sessions, each followed by a 15-minute discussion for feedback and coaching in interview technique. Students are asked real interview questions from the past two years, tailored to their choice of university, college, and course. The interviewers are highly qualified members of the Vantage team, many of whom are real Oxbridge interviewers and/or Oxbridge supervisors. Our founding director has coached students who have gained admission to almost every Oxford and Cambridge undergraduate college. We recommend the most suitable interviewers for each student depending on their university and course choice. After each mock interview, students receive a written summary of feedback, including an estimation of score on a scale of 1.0-9.0.
