AW i'm so glad you liked my vlog! i am super excited for you to start your mcmaster chapter!! sadly i won't be coming back to mcmaster after this semester i LOVE it here though :(
i can't believe i actually met the person whose videos i watched before coming to mac!! love how life turns out :) and thank you so much! loved the energy you guys brought to my vid!!
Hey, I have OCR and also study Duchess of Malfi, great Gatsby, and age of innocence. I often struggle knowing how to revise, and choosing which quotes to learn and how many of the same theme (especially with the B question on paper 1 Shakespeare, as the questions always seem so alien and elaborate, I struggle deciphering what they’re asking for and never seem to have the right quotes and critics to answer with). I kind of just panic and forget my revision and ramble, which only gets me so far. I don’t really know if there is any advice you could give me but I would appreciate anything if there is. Thank you!!
hii, so there's only a finite number of themes you should memorise for. shakespeare: do quote banks (5 significant quotes each) for the characters, scenes and themes (politics/scheming, war/martial, family/relationships, betrayal/deceit). try to use different quotes - that way you will get a good range that you could remember for any essay!! a good rule of thumb, is picking quotes that you know how to analyse - i found those were easiest to remember. i remember B questions were so tricky, but remember that they're always about one of the few themes (even if they're worded super confusingly, it's j the examiner trying to catch you out). hope that helps good luck!!
OMG i am soo glad! no coz that was me at your age! i'm so happy i touched upon this even though it wasn't even the point of the video. but i do know how one factor in choosing your degree is picking it based on your future career, so i completely understand! just to let you know, it is never too late, you don't choose the wrong degree, and you end up doing amazing!! :)) your comment rly means a lot to me thank you
I literally watched this the other day, and then got the placement offer shortly afterwards. The timing’s actually so crazy, I can’t believe I’m now joining the workforce for a year instead of doing my final year- our paths really are separating now 🤯
aidan!!!! literally so elated for you this is such an amazing opportunity and i'm so glad you have it! wait this means we'll graduate at the same time :) ah but you'll have a taste of the workforce before me ah our paths really are becoming different from one another wow <3
Hey! I got accepted to Warwick but my parents are a bit concerned about Coventry not being safe and the apparent harassment cases at Warwick etc. Do u mind sharing your opinion on this?
hi! these are super valid concerns that I, and many warwick students, had before they went to wwk! i've never feared for my life when in cov, yes there r the occasional odd ppl walking around but that's the case in all cities! plus in your first year honestly you'll be spending most of your time on campus (not in cov city centre) so you'll be v safe! as for the harassment, i rmb i was super worried abt that too. but now, i don't think that's specific only to warwick. it happens everywhere and at all universities but it happened to be Exposed at warwick. i would definitely not let that get in the way of your attending!! just remain cautious and stay alert at all times, use your common sense etc etc. let me know how it goes!! :)
@@marguerite_huahii i just wanted to ask, im an incoming freshman going to warwick next month and was wondering whether it’d be better for me to stay in coventry or near campus?
@@catherinewidjaja4470 hiya! i would definitely recommend living on campus if you can, near is fine too if you're in cannon park! it will be much easier to get your bearings as a fresher. you can live in coventry in your 2nd/3rd years when you're more used to the general environment and surroundings :)
Always look forward to watching your new videos! I’m hopefully going to Warwick this September to do PAIS (just waiting for my a level results) and this was really informative :)
I had 21 contact hours per week studying Cyber Security but uni really is what you make of it cus I managed to get super involved with sports and societies (maybe by sacrificing some lectures etc) but it's been all worth it :))
I got a D somehow on my last mock exam, I put so much time and effort into to it so it was frustrating, but progress is progress as I got an E the time before that. Having said this... I need an A for the uni course i want to do...
it's such good timing that you've asked this, because i have just filmed a video that goes through this! i was stuck between warwick and bristol. i love how warwick has that campus vibe and i bump into friends and acquaintances all the time coz we're all just in the same place! and it's not boring at all, there's actually so much to do :)
This vid helped me so much, I’ve got the same comparative texts as you!! I’m just wondering, to be a pain lol, what were the main themes you focused on for each of the texts? I’m struggling to stick to a theme to revise quotes for:( Thank you 🤞🏼 xx
aww firstly best of luck for ur exams!! i guess for the american texts, my themes were love/marriage, dreams/ideals, greed/corruption, class/money and for the medieval texts, it was similar-ish, love/marriage, deceit/lies, greed/corruption - there’s definitely another theme i’m missing, you got this!!!
