I am thinking of doing Electrical engineering at Bristol,Bath or UCL. I am not sure how I could prepare for the interview; and what types of questions they could ask me at the interview.

Are you sure you'll be asked for an interview? It's not so common to have interviews nowadays, unless it's for Oxbridge.

Have you tried looking at The Student Room website? It's full of good (and not so good) advice.

I will ask my DS. He is doing Electrical and Electronic Engineering at UCL.

My son received offers from Bath and Bristol last year for aeronautical engineering but wasnt called to interview at either. Hopefully your experience will be similar.

My son also had offers from Bath and Bristol (electrical and electronic engineering) and no proper interviews. Just had a little chat at the department open days-really not an interview. Only Cambridge interviewed him.

My DS had interviews at UCL, Manchester and Warwick. That was two years ago.
