Natural Sciences Admissions Assessment; 2x interviews.
Interviews 1: mathematical questions, A Level content; Interview 2: new material, chemistry.
Practise speaking through your thought process.
Use both NSAA and PAT papers.
Don't worry about getting things wrong!
Remember this advice isn't official. There is no guarantee it will reflect your experience because university applications can change between years. Check the official Cambridge and Oxford websites for more accurate information on this year's application format and the required tests.
Also, someone else's experience may not reflect your own. Most interviews are more like conversations than tests and like, any conversation, they are quite interactive.

The physics interview was mostly working through mathematical questions and applying equations to slightly more complex scenarios than you usually would, but no real new content. In the chemistry one I was asked to talk through a bond mechanism I hadn't covered yet, but they were very supportive!
Mostly looking at example questions and making sure I understood everything from class so far (well enough to explain to someone why as well as what). I also worked through past paper questions, speaking through my thought process.
