Economics Oxbridge Admissions

“George has been a great help to my successful Oxford application with his vast knowledge of economics and the Oxford application process. He will go above and beyond to ensure you receive excellent preparation to achieve your goals. George was always able to adapt to my schedule and bring new preparation material for each class. I would certainly recommend him to anyone wishing to improve their chances of being accepted by their first-choice university.”

— William, student — accepted to Oxford

I can help with the TSA, college choice, extra reading, personal statements and interviews. Several former students have attained places at Oxford University for economics (PPE and E&M); I helped a student go from the 30th percentile to the top percentile (1/100) in the TSA, which secured them a place at Oxford University (Lady Margaret Hall) for Economics and Management. I helped international students optimise their interview performance, such that they won admission for PPE Oxford. I have an extensive catalogue of past interview questions for PPE Oxford (90 pages of interview questions), with particular expertise in helping students with game theory past interview questions commonly asked in microeconomics interviews (I scored the best mark in the year at Oxford in game theory) at Oxford. I can help students optimise their preparation by selecting interview questions asked previously at the exact college they are applying for, providing the First class ideas and insights that worked well for me in the Oxford University exams to help me secure 3 prizes.

“George was great in preparing my son for Cambridge University Economics degree interview as my son said that he was asked similar questions at actual interview to those practised with George during a mock interview. I think George knows his stuff!”

— Akin, parent

Try a taster Oxford economics interview question

This is the kind of question asked in Oxford economics interviews. I have an extensive catalogue of past interview questions (90 pages), with particular expertise in the game-theory questions common in microeconomics interviews — I scored the best mark in the year at Oxford in game theory.

The game of 21. Two players. The first to say 21 wins. Each player can only go up by 1 or 2 from the previous player’s number.

Can you predict who will win? Can you explain the strategy for a forced win?

In a real interview, what matters is not whether you spot the answer instantly — it is how you reason out loud. WhatsApp me your answer and I’ll tell you whether an Oxford interviewer would be satisfied with it.
