观看视频时，可以暂停，这样就有时间自己思考如何处理这类问题，当然也可以往回拉进度条，而且想看几次就看几次。

Mathematics 数学
牛津大学数学课程的学术要求比较高，面试也相当有难度。数学专业+牛津的组合，成就了牛津数学专业极其激烈的申请竞争！
牛津大学面试题通常没有确切答案，面试者重在评估面试者的面试过程。牛津数学专业的面试题灵活性很高，既有对严谨的数学知识的考察，又有对学生整体数学能力的评估，因此对面试者的综合能力要求也很高。
面试真题
● How many ways are there to cover a 2 x n rectangular grid with 2 x 1 tiles?
●There's a torus/ring doughnut shaped space station with 2 spacemen on a spacewalk standing diametrically oppositie each other. Can then ask a variety of questions such as if spaceman A wants to throw a spanner to spaceman B, what angle and speed should they choose (stating any assumptions made, e.g. that gravity = 0)?
● Imagine a ladder leaning against a vertical wall with its feet on the ground. The middle rung of the ladder has been painted a different colour on the side, so that we can see it when we look at the ladder from the side on. What shape does that middle rung trace out as the ladder falls to the floor?
问题旨在考察面试者的信息筛选及处理能力，以及能否用数学思维思考正在发生的事情。
牛津大学面试官首先会问面试者认为是什么形状，接下来需要面试者一步步验证自己的结论。有的面试者可能会尝试画出梯子在不同阶段的草图，但是面试官想看到严谨的思考过程，比如运用数学方法(如方程式等)来模拟情况。
如果面试者在解题的过程中遇到困难，面试官会给予提示，如：提示思考梯子与墙壁地面的关系等。最终面试者会发现梯子在每个阶段都与墙壁地面形成了一个直角三角形，有些面试者可能会立刻使用勾股定理来寻找答案（即梯子形成了一个四分之一圆，中心在地面和墙壁的交汇处)。
