One hour test in two parts: (a) 15 minutes to answer 15 multiple-choice questions (b) 45 minutes for a short essay, one question from a choice of two.

Two half-hour interviews with two different fellows. They asked about topics of philosophical interest but no knowledge was presumed. Generally speaking, the purpose of the interviews is to just to get the candidate to engage with a philosophical question and see how they work through their thinking and defend their views.

The multiple-choice questions on the test focused on basic logic and philosophical reasoning. The essay questions will normally be related to current philosophical debates, but posed in ways that don't require any knowledge of them.

My first interview focused on a specific paradox. It was described to me, and then we tried to work through some of the implications. My second interview was slightly broader - we covered various questions relating to wider society. Generally I think you can expect your interviewer to ask you a question, and then challenge your position to test your ability to defend your answers.

I didn't find it necessary to do any specific preparation.

Remember to have fun! The fellows won't bite, and if you're relaxed you'll do a better job of answering their questions.
