What are the most interesting funny Oxbridge interview stories you know?
I've heard of an Oxbridge interview where the interviewer started the interview by asking the candidate if they believed in aliens. The candidate, without hesitation, said yes and then proceeded to tell a long, elaborate story about how they once thought they saw a UFO as a child. The interviewer was so entertained that they spent the next few minutes discussing the possibility of extraterrestrial life instead of the normal academic topics. This unexpected turn of events made it a really interesting and funny interview story.
Well, I know a story where an applicant was asked to prove that they could think on their feet. The interviewer threw a random object, like a pen, at them and said, 'Tell me five things about this pen in 30 seconds.' The applicant quickly said things like 'It's cylindrical, it has a clip, it's blue, it can write, and it's lightweight'. The spontaneity of the situation made it really funny.
