Oxford University has begun the admission procedure for 2018 session. Students applying for the class of 2018 at Oxford may have to rack their brains to answer questions like ladybirds are red, so are strawberries, why? Ahead of interview challenges for the applicants of undergraduate courses, this question and similar other quirky questions are part of the sample interview questions released by Oxford University. The university has released a fresh set of questions from tutors who hold the interviews in order to soothe applicants’ nerves and throw more light on what may be expected. Here we have got a list of the sample interview questions:
• Why do many animals have stripes?
• Here’s a cactus. Tell me about it.
• How do pirates divide their treasure?
