      @@lilytan2961 hi! I actually never applied, because as an earlier commenter mentioned, the whole concept behind minerva is a bit of a lie - its packaged as this amazing globetrotting academic experience, when really it offers vague degrees that risk not being recognised by well established institutions, all at a stupidly high cost. And i mean STUPIDLY high. I am 18 now, i just finished my a levels, and i will be going to study psychology at the University of Liverpool in september, which is a decision I am super proud of and happy with! All the best xx

    • @catriona5268
      @catriona5268 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      You do end up with a valid degree - either a BSc or a BA, if I recall rightly. In the UK, I believe uni name matters more than what you studied; it's the other way around in Australia. A BSc is pretty good but a BA is very generic and not highly valued. Look into what you want to do afterwards and whether Minerva can actually offer you majors/minors in that area, as they take an extremely broad focus and don't have a wide range of subjects due to their small size.

    • @emmasamantha3985
      @emmasamantha3985 4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      For me they had some basic math questions (10 mins) this was kinda hard don't underestimate it and then a reading part where you had to write words that correlated with another word. This was a little easy. Mine was brush so I had to put words like teeth, clean etc. That was called the "creativity" section ( I think). Then they had the interviews and for this you have to answer some questions. You have about 1-2 min to prepare answers for these questions so think on ur feet. My one tip though is to put urself in a neat place because they will want to see you through ur camera all throughout the application process. So make sure nothing is covering ur camera. Hope this helps

      Hey! I don't know much about the British education system so I can't comment on that but usually Minerva students are at the top of their class. My grade point average was 3.7 (out of 4.0) without advanced courses and more than 4.0 with them. So you do need good grades but in my experience they don't have to be perfect :)
