 Parents complain that it is difficult to live with teenagers. Then again, teenagers say exactly the same 
thing about their parents! According to a recent survey, the most common arguments between parents and 
teenagers are those regarding untidiness and household chores. On the one hand, parents go mad over untidy 
rooms, clothes dropped on the floor and their children's refusal to help with the housework. On the other 
hand, teenagers lose their patience continually when parents tell them off for dropping the towel in the 
bathroom, not cleaning up their room or refusing to do the shopping at the supermarket.

 In efforts to make the interview process more transparent, the prestigious university has released advice 
on how to answer the example questions just days after the deadline for applications closed. Dr Samina 
Khan, director of admissions and outreach, said: “Interviews will be an entirely new experience for most 
students, and we know many prospective applicants are already worried about being in an unfamiliar place 
and being questioned by people they have not met.”
 She added: “We want to underscore that every question asked by our tutors has a purpose, and that 
purpose is to assess how students think about their subject and respond to new information or unfamiliar 
ideas. No matter what kind of educational background or opportunities you have had, the interview should 
be an opportunity to present your interest and ability in your chosen subject, since they are not just about 
reciting what you already know."
 Laura Tunbridge, from St Catherine's College, explained why a music candidate might be asked to 
explain the different ways they listen to music. “The question allows students to use their own musical 
experiences as a starting point for a broader and more abstract discussion about the different ways people 
consume music, the relationship between music and technology, and how music can define us socially,” she 
said.
 Candidates who successfully clear the first hurdle with their written application will be invited to 
interview. “We know there are still misunderstandings about the Oxford interview, so we put as much 
information as possible out there to allow students to see the reality of the process," added Dr Khan.
