Honoured to have made it into the thumbnail man! XD Love the content, keep it up
Haha thanks man! Great contribution too :)
Hi Pietro. I hope you're doing well. I'm currently doing a bachelor's in English language and literature and I'm looking to pursue a postgraduate degree in philosophy and literature too! I wasn't actually aware that Oxford offered a philosophy and literature interdisciplinary program. I was just hoping to ask what exactly it is that you're majoring in because I'd like to look more into it. Your response would be really appreciated. Thank you!!
@@CalmAtHighTide nice essay lol
@@CalmAtHighTide Hey there how are you doing! The course I took last year is called European Studies (now also Medieval and Modern Languages) -- this encapsulates anything from philosophy, literature, philology, linguistics and even history of art. It's an incredibly multidisciplinary course -- especially the Master of Studies programme, which I took last year before starting my PhD at Oxford. For example, during the year I took courses on 20th century German philosophy in the German department, Italian late medieval lyric, English 19th & 20th century literature (known as a C-option course in the English department at Oxford!) and did my dissertation on Italian Renaissance art history. As you can see the course offers huge breadth and profits from all departments across Oxford, which is pretty rare here...
Good luck with everything and sorry for the late reply!
@@pietrobordi3359 Hello Sir Pietro Bordi, I am going to the UK this year and am going to my A levels. I want to do bachelor's in Economics and Management and need to get A*AA. How can i achieve that the most effectively and efficiently? . What would you have done if you had to do like A levels again to get the best grades? My plan is to just make summaries of the information i get and try to get A* in at least 2 subjects but i dont really know if what i am going to do is efficient and effectieve. My subject i want to chose are Maths, Economics and business.
Great vids. Thankss! worth to try :)
Great video. But you should have asked where they've graduated from high schools / pre-university institution.
Great feedback, thanks!
most of them won't be famous schools, so no one would have likely heard of them
I maybe wrong but why do so many people think you gotta have this 10/10 background and go to amazing schools that's not the case. Yes some rich kids do end up in the top universities not just cause they're rich but because their parents knew what to do. Alot of students at Oxford/Cambridge are not as rich as you think. Alot of people think you gotta be this 10/10 student to get in you don't.
@@gossipqueen1013most of them are rich or at least well-off
@@gossipqueen1013 In a country where over 94.1% of students are from state schools, approximately 31.4% of Oxford students are from private schools.
Nice video, hope you will keep on doing it when I'm gonna get in Oxford university or maybe Cambridge, we will see next year!
Hi did you get in?
@@Orioleexzz I am going to send my application in two months, sorry if you misunderstood, but I was talking about school years. So my school year ends in two months. And I can't send it before, because I have to wait for my exams results to add in my folder. If you wanna get in you can check out their web site and send an email, that is given on their web site!
@@Orioleexzzwhat's your concern
great question!
2:07 It’s Magdalen College not Merton College 😂
my crush is proll going to oxford
but she also could go to any UC series in California
It was always my dream to go to Oxford University. But all the things I did in the past screwed me. I hope to go there at least for a visit
Are oxford entrance exams only for undergraduate admission??
I want to see this guys youtube channel
Easy answer… Apply
The problem with this video is that it’s ambiguous and therefore misleading as it appears to be a mixture of undergrads and postgrads in this vox pop. So all the stuff about having a very strong letter of recommendation from an expert in their field is 100% relevant to postgraduate applications but NOT the case for undergraduate applications: in this case your reference will be from your teacher and not “an expert in their field”…just your ordinary, regular teacher.
So personally I’d ignore everything on this video if you’re applying for an undergrad degree to Oxford as it’s pretty misleading. If they’d identified the difference between each respondent (ie it said “undergraduate in Modern Languages” or “postgraduate studying Maths”) then that might have made it more useful…but they didn’t and it isn’t
It’s not if you’ve got any ability to read into context about whether people are under or postgrad
@@tomfiddick3425 I “have the ability to read into the context”…not least because I am a postgraduate student myself, but given this channel and this video is, I assume, claiming to offer advice to prospective students (many of whom won’t be so well acquainted with the British university system - particularly if they are from overseas), then having something that’s pretty unclear and frankly misleading is hardly helpful. There’s some good info out there on You Tube about making a competing application to Oxford and Cambridge…but this isn’t one of them!
Nice video
Thank you Zeba :)
Magdalen not Merton
2:07 She said Magdalen College, not Merton College
Oops!
@@DelescenMedia What sounds harder to your "ears"? 1. Masters Degree in Mathematics or 2. Masters Degree in Statistics?
@@scholarlyanalyst7700 To me I personally prefer statistics because it's the framework of literally everything in the universe, our brain constantly analyzes, even now my brains using statistics to write this in this word order but people don't think of statistics like that unfortunately. I'd say it depends what career path you want, if you want to go into business then statistics is better but if you want to go into R&D or post grad I'd say mathematics is better and then if you want you can minor in stats or do a postgrad in it, up to you ofc.
@@scholarlyanalyst7700 You also have to remember you can take statistics electives in your mathematics major, you probably also cover it lightly anyways. Also mathematics as a whole is the framework of our reality but the statistical component to me is more important, especially at the quantum level. I might end up doing statistics in university but I'm years of from making that decision so I'll focus on my grades 😂.
@@Anonymoose66G OH. Are you kidding? Are you still in high school? Not that there's anything wrong with that (if true?). It's just that while I was reading your reply I was assuming you were a university student?
In any event, I wholeheartedly agree with you that statistics more accurately mirrors the real world - certainly from a decision perspective - than pure mathematics!
The real world is often somewhat predictable BUT with many uncertainties. The real-world certainly is not as clear-cut and precise as pure math would have us believe.
I believe statistics most accurately models this messy uncertainty - which is why it's also required for most of the physical sciences!
Statistics "looks" like the real world. Somewhat predictable - but allowing for a modest degree of uncertainly in the form of probabilities, confidence intervals, and so forth!
U should have asked them about their future career prospects
Do you mean questions like: "What is your dream job?" or "What do you want to become?"
@@DelescenMediaI think what do you want to become is the right question to ask...
Love this question@@eshaansarkar2017
Can you be too old for Oxford? All the people in this video seem so young. ^^ I mean is it a criteria for entrance?
I don't think so you can apply as a mature student
Their is no age limit
La mayoría son carreras que no sirven para nada
be a POC or URM
Most of them weren't POC/URM
But psychologists in Oxford u have no proof to the public for any Cantonese cases in America land issues. Why I paid such amount of efforts before the future arrivals?
i can swear that the guy on 0:37 is turkish :S
I don't know I hear a bit of a french accent in him, if I had to bet on it I'd say he's Tunisian.
he’s fully Italian, he said it himself in the comments
@@user-vx5lb2yn7qr u sure about this
His name? @@user-vx5lb2yn7q
Many people here studying useless degrees just to say they went Oxford. The guy who studied theoretical physics is the smartest one in this video
I guess a good advice, if you're a female, would be to have a very marked vocal fry.
Questions about or recommendations on Oxford's application process? Comment down below and let's help each other! :)
Sir, can I ask for your video to translate it into Vietnamese and post on our school books club fb page? We are committed to attribution and attach your link to our article and if you agree, I hope you can leave us a contact method like fb or instagram so we can exchange more information.
I am a Kenyan and Christian, above the list, I'll mention, put God first, pray always without ceasing, and have the following:
1. Ensure your academic transcripts are incredible,
2. Fine-tune your Personal statement, to be extraordinary; highlighting your passion, carrier work/ volunteer work, and leadership roles. They should be on the same trajectory as the course you wanna pursue.
3. Look for the best recommenders / Referees.
4. Write an adorable CV, Oxford has its preferred format, (If possible inscribe your Research Project / Proposal).
5. Meet the language requirements.
6. Interview is a vital process in Oxford application, don't panic.
Be black, female and have decent enough grades.
no one in the video is black though. Not all black women are taken as diversity hires
literally nobody here was black, and the male to female students ratios at oxford are always split at near 50%. decent enough grades don't get you here, excellent grades do lmao people really say anything on the internet
dont go to oxford
Why
