And have been invited for a studentship interview (PhD position in Medical Stats) to be held on Monday 7. The project is obviously known already. My question is, how to prepare for this interview? What kind of questions would they ask me? As part of the interview, they have asked me to bring with me ''a Powerpoint presentation on research I have already undertaken (no longer than five minutes). I have never done any research prior to this. So I was wondering if they require something I've done about the project I am applying for? If so how can I go about it as I only have one day to do it. How shall I best represent my findings? Your help will be more appreciated. Thanks
