Please attempt these questions in examination conditions. Do not discuss the questions, look up, or share the answers.
We ask that you avoid using AI tools in your application. The purpose of the essays and questions is to understand if you would be a right fit for the programme.
Part 2

After reviewing your application, selected applicants will be asked to join us for an evaluation activity.
