KCS Wimbledon 16+ Interview

[MelCookie]

DD is delighted to have a 16+ interview at KCS tomorrow. Apparently there will be 2 subject-based interviews (based on her indicative A-Level choices) and 1 general interview. We would be very grateful for any insights into past KCS sixth form interview experiences please. Thanks and best of luck to all those going through similar entrance tests!

Hi, sorry no knowledge to share but my daughter has an interview tomorrow too so came here to ask the same thing. Good luck to your daughter.

Hopefully someone will come along and can give us some pointers maybe... Good luck for tomorrow! DD is at 3.15pm. Not too sure what to expect with the subject based interviews - she's opting for languages, history and english

KCS interview all done and dusted now, but in case anyone comes across this next year and would like some insights.

DD said it was relaxed and friendly. The general interview was the usual "why would you like to come here", "what would you contribute to the school" and talking about the interests she mentioned on the registration form.

She said no specific revision was needed for the subject interviews. More just talking about topics within the subject and asking her to explain her understanding of concepts/topics - nothing hugely tricky; she thinks she could have answered better but that was more to do with nerves.

@Renamedaccount hope all went well for your DD.

Glad your DD’s interviews went well. My DD is pretty sure she blew hers. Hard to tell as she is very tough on herself but she was pretty nervous so may have got completely flustered. I guess we will have to wait and see!
