The state to private school ratio is still soooo disproportionate. Only about 8% of the UK goes to private schools, so why are 40% of Bristol private school students? Smh
This isn't even taking into account people who come from highly selective grammar schools that disproportionately have fewer working-class students. Students may choose to move from private to a state sixth form as well, further complicating the statistics. 40% sounds very high and would make me question if I would fit in well or not.
Nicole Veronica I’m going to go do Law, I’m sure I’ll have a love hate relationship with it, like everyone does with their degrees. Sounds good, looking forward to watching it! xx
I totally agree with the drug part! Drugs are everywhere not just in Bristol. I have this teacher in my school who graduated from Bristol, and people think he takes drugs, just because he went there.
Yes drugs are everywhere and not necessarily uni/city specific, I feel the media and city portrayal has definitely played a massive part in how people perceive Bristol as being druggy I.e. skins
hey! thank you so much for your videos, i’m really interested in Bristol and it’s my first choice to study Theatre and English, do you know anyone who does that course and what they think about it? also have you found the workload difficult to manage in your experience? xx
Hey Evie, thank you so much I’m glad you enjoy my videos. In terms of Theatre and English I know a few people who do it and really enjoy it, as it’s combine course you have the opportunity to cover a broad spectrum of different units from both disciplines. In terms of workload it’s definitely about finding the balance and I will be uploading a video about how I balance work at uni, so make sure you are subbed for when that gets posted! Xx
Hey! I'm thinking about doing an exchange at Uni of Bristol, but haven't quite decided. Could you give me some info about how the overall community is? (would it be easy to make friends there?) And I was also wondering how difficult the classes are, and if they are more discussion-based or favour an independent learning style? Thanks for your help, love the videos!
Hey Chantal! Thank you so much for your message, I am glad you like my videos. So exciting that you are considering Bristol for your exchange! In terms of the overall I think it’s a very enriching and vibrate community with lots happening. In my opinion, if you look in the right places you definitely can make friends, there are so many opportunities to do so especially being part of the academic community whilst studying. In terms of class difficult it is extremely varied and I cannot give you a generalised answer due to this. It really depends on the course and the units you take, as well as your work ethic. But there are so many support services to help you if you are studying and need that bit of extra support. I really hope this helped! Don’t hesitate to ask me anymore questions or anything. All the best x
@@nicole_veronica hey what would you recommend between Warwick and Bristol :) I am mixed - black and white - and racial issues are a concern for me! I would love to have more black people and diversity is a big factor for me also I really want to have fun and party as well as study of course. What do you think?
Aksangel _ yes they’ve newly adopted different approaches and avenues towards supporting students who reach out, from online support to mentoring as well as constant support from councillors if you request x
Hello, I’ve heard good things about studying engineering at Bristol and know that is it ranked quite higher in terms of academic quality and research. Definitely have a look on the website as there is lots of info there about the course etc. What would you like to know about placements?
noone you could potentially do your postgraduate part time which means you wouldn’t always have to be in Bristol, and you would only have to travel for your lectures which could vary from 1-3 hours a week max at uni. It really depends on the course and how much you are willing to travel but I know a few people who do postgraduate study and commute from London to Bristol.
Hello Rinta, congratulations - what will you be studying? Finances all depends on how much you will be paying for rent/bills/food etc. Make sure you are subscribed for when I upload more Bristol and uni-related content :)
Hello! I currently reside in India and would be applying to UK unis for law. However, I’m not at all familiar with the education system and would definitely keep having doubts about it in the future. I’m really hoping to get into Bristol. Do you mind if I text you somewhere to keep in touch in case I have any doubts in the future? I know this is weird and I understand if you aren’t comfortable but it’d be very helpful if you are fine w it. Xx
Hey, I am freshman at an Indian Uni which offers a trasnfer program with Uni of Bristol. I was thinking to go there for my 2nd and 3rd year. So, would you recommend that, keeping in mind that I have been doing very well, academically and culturally. Will it be difficult to make friends and keep up with the course as i am more interested in drama and other cultural activities?
Hello Ronit, thank you for your comment. Coming to Bristol will be very different and take adjusting to however it’s doable and the university can help support you through a number of avenues. I recommend Bristol as I’m very bias due to having a positive experience here, however it really depends on you personally and knowing yourself. Whether or not moving to a different country would affect your studies for example, or if you would get home sick? In terms of activities such as drama and the arts we have a plethora of different societies to get involved in and you definitely will not get bored if you come. Make sure you’re subscribed for when I post more Bristol videos!
Hello! I have got an offer for “stem” foundation with progression to psychology bsc. I was wondering if you have any info or knowledge about how hard the stem program is at Bristol and if it would be very stressful and difficult. I got an offer for cardiff as well but their foundation involves humanities and stuff so that is much better for me. However, I really want Bristol and I would just really appreciate some insight on how the stem program in bristol is and how hard I should expect it to be.
Hey, I’ve just found your channel and I was wandering how to actually pay for uni, i know tuition fee is fine because it’s a tax after i graduate, but what i don’t understand is maintenance loan. So both my parents are pharmacists meaning their income makes me eligible for around £3k a year, which is lower than the cheaper accommodations. I’m a bit confused as to how i will sustain myself and i know parents have to pay the remainder but we live in London, they have debts and i have 4 younger siblings at home so they can’t afford to cover the costs. So basically I’m really confused how i will be able to afford to live, im not eligible for any bursary and i was wondering if maintenance is the only way I’m expected to live or do the gov give more money yeah im just so confused. Im in year 12 btw
AlishaNicole Brady hey follow me on Instagram and I can dm you and explain everything on there if you like? Just conscious as money is quite a personal thing (in case you wanted some privacy) x
Hey there! One of my good friends studies history at Bristol and this is what he said: Well I don't have much to compare to but I would say that the department is really good and that there's a good diversity in specialists (ie : there's a lot of options on what you want to study, be it medieval, modern, cultural, political etc). The only thing I'm not really fond of is the exam format as it basically forces you to cram. Otherwise there's a huge liberty in doing what you're interested in which is the biggest plus (ex: I literally only did 20th century politics stuff) - hope this helps!
Nicole Veronica thank you! I don’t pay too much attention to the stuff but Bristol Uni has gone down 5 places for History over the last year. Any idea why?
Jazza statistics for subjects and universities fluctuate year by year so I it’s normal for them to move up and down the league table. There’s also loads of different rankings out there where the university will be ranked differently for different things x
Hey I studied psychology in education which was very similar to the psychology course and I loved it. I also knew quite a few people who did the straight psychology course and only had good things to say about it really. You can do a mix of exams and different kinds of coursework and Bristol allow you to have that flexibility of picking open units in other disciplines if that was something you were interested in! I hope this was helpful, anymore questions don’t hesitate to ask x
Your so welcome. That’s so normal to feel both those emotions, just remember everyone is in the same boat and probably feel just how you do. If you have any questions or any video suggestions don’t hesitate to DM me on Instagram @nicole_veronica_. I will also be bringing out a video about Psychology at UOB if you are Interested, so make sure your subscribed for when that comes out!
