tolulah Hey ;) i’m a med student from germany - did you encounter any fellow students that applied for the clinical years at oxford from a different university and got accepted? Chances on the internet range from unbelievable small to impossible. 😬🤦♂️
I agree with you regarding not being overloaded. The core of learning and studying is assimilation. Assimilation requires SLOW THINKING. You have to take the time and ponder upon what you are studying / reading. Universities nowadays overload you with work, and this destroys any proper learning. It turns the so-called studying into a total waste of time. A lot passes through your mind and very little, if anything, remains.
I think it’s so unfair how different colleges do things differently. In my first and second terms I had daily Latin classes, weekly essays, weekly tutorials, and even more extra Latin classes, it’s was so difficult. I’m IIA too xx
I’ve got an offer for Classics II and English at Oxford and this video was so helpful! I didn’t realise until you explained it that I also have a “I’ll be at the bottom but I’ll be at Oxford” mentality. I’m from a state school, I don’t know the first thing about Greek or Latin, and I’m undecided whether I want to accept the offer. I just don’t know whether I’ll be able to keep up with it all and be good enough
oml thank you so so much for this video I'm starting classics iia in like 2 weeks and i was so afraid that i was not going to get enough help with learning latin! you've reallyyyyy reassured me because honestly i was so scared i haven't learnt any languages since like gcse! rip me why did i apply for a degree i had non of the right subjects for lolllllllll
Do you have any information or maybe videos about the philosophy, psychology and linguistic program ? I'm in my last year of high school and just passionate about philosophy and psychology and can't really find any information on people experiences with this course Also your video was really helpful since I want to apply to Oxford after a gap year so it really spoke to me and reassured me thank you :)
Thank you so much for this! Really really insightful. I’m looking to either apply to Oxford or Cambridge for law and I’m finding it really hard to decide but there are definitely more Oxford uni based youtubers :)))
All these Oxbridge graduates' videos on TH-cam are really annoying. She's talking nonsense, unstructured, for more than half an hour. Randomly jumping here are there. So annoying.
it's just a casual conversational video i don't think she meant to make it super structured and organised lol. she's just treating us like we're her friends, that's how most youtubers roll.

Thank you, so useful!

I'm exhausted just listening
I need a speciality tea and a power nap ;-)
That sounds like a brutal latin class. I’d be stressed too!
If I don't like school, and then I watch your videos, I'm sure you'll get excited about the lesson, you're a source of motivation
Please calm down geez
@@educatingmelanie4411 OMG please shut up this is comment And l am free

This is sooo useful for me now that I'm here. Thank you for sharing!

Incoming grad fresher at New! Does the JCR / MCR sell old discounted swag from the previous year? I didn't bring much clothing due to limited baggage.
Amazing video!
You look so pretty! Hope you are doing well :)
thank you Stephanie! xx
How's mba finance in Oxford ?
why mandarin and not latin in your gap year? May have relieved some pressure ?
Mandarin was a personal choice :) also my gap year was solely for travel and personal growth, not prep for uni!
l love You viola
you sound like a stalker!
Über treibt nicht es langt
You are perfect girl
Please answer me😭😭😭😭
