'The best applicants convinced us that they had considered their choice of university and subject carefully. They demonstrated that they could organise their time and thoughts under pressure, responding positively to challenge, arguing logically, and revisiting and refining their initial ‘take’ on a question when presented with new information, or new lines of inquiry. They were able to provide a variety of examples in support of their opinions, derived from academic sources, as well as personal experience, and displayed real intellectual curiosity about the topics discussed, even where these related to aspects of the degree course outside the area in which they hoped to specialize'.
