In an admissions landscape where Oxford and Cambridge acceptance rates are getting lower every year (currently around 13%), having the right preparation can make all the difference. Dukes Plus’s Oxbridge Prep courses are specifically designed to give aspiring applicants everything they need to stand out—whether they’re aiming for English, Law, Medicine, Economics (including PPE), or Computer Science.
Comprehensive, Self-Paced E-Learning
Each Oxbridge Prep pathway is delivered as an access-anytime e-learning course, priced at only £25, allowing students to work at their own pace. Rather than relying on generic advice, every course is authored by Oxbridge admissions consultants who have walked the same path you are on. These experts have supported hundreds of successful applications, ensuring that the guidance you receive is both current and grounded in real admissions practice.
What You’ll Find Inside Each Pathway
- Course Overviews and Outlines
Delve into thorough, meticulously researched documents that explain everything you need to know about studying your chosen subject at Oxford or Cambridge. From the structure of the course itself to the key skills and knowledge that admissions tutors look for, you’ll gain clarity on what makes a standout applicant. - Case Studies from Real Students
Reading about successful applicants can be hugely motivating. Within each pathway, you’ll find first-hand accounts from Oxbridge undergraduates, offering insider perspectives on both the application process and the day-to-day life at their colleges. These case studies highlight not only academic choices but also the super-curricular activities that made each student’s profile compelling. - Interview Preparation
The infamous Oxbridge interview is often cited as one of the most challenging aspects of the process. Dukes Plus’s courses include dozens of sample interview questions, drawn from real interviews in previous years. You’ll also find suggested approaches for tackling typical problems—whether that’s a philosophical prompt in PPE or a problem-solving exercise in Computer Science—so you can enter your mock and actual interviews with confidence. - Personal Statement Exemplars
Crafting a compelling personal statement is about more than listing achievements; it’s about weaving a coherent narrative that demonstrates genuine passion for your subject. Each pathway contains examples of successful personal statements, allowing you to study the structure, tone, and content that resonate with Oxbridge admissions tutors. - Sample Admissions Tests
Many Oxbridge courses place significant weight on compulsory admissions exams. Within the Medicine, Computer Science, Economics, and Law pathways, you’ll find practice papers that closely replicate the style and difficulty of the actual tests—BMAT, TSA, LNAT, or HAT, depending on the course. By completing these mock tests, you’ll familiarise yourself with time pressures and question formats long before exam day. - Super-Curricular Recommendations
Demonstrating engagement beyond the classroom is essential. The Oxbridge Prep courses curate a list of super-curricular resources—podcasts, books, online lectures, and research projects—that admissions tutors love to see. Whether you’re reading key law cases, exploring advanced concepts in economics, or tinkering with programming challenges, these suggestions will help you develop a richer intellectual profile.
