It sounds easy to say but try not to obsess over it - do the best you can and put in the work for the admissions test and interviews but you might not be right for them (the university) and that's okay!
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.

Even if you don't get an offer, it's an incredibly valuable and interesting experience.
