What are you reading this summer?

Hi Joe! Great video as usual. I have currently read Krugman’s, ‘The Return of Depression Economics’, Dan Ariely’s, ‘Predicatbly Irrational’, and am in the process of reading, ‘The Shifts and Shocks’ by Martin Wolf, ‘GDP’ by Professor Coyle, Richard Whittington’s, ‘What is Strategy?’ and John Kay’s, ‘Foundations of corporate success’. Along with this I have also completed some work experience at PwC, am interning at Santander and also St. James’ Place. I have also entered and won some essay competitions, founded an economics society, have a blog, written an economics EPQ, watched lectures by the IFS and Bank of England. I was wondering whether you thought there was any other supercurriculars I should be focusing on during the summer (as I’m also doing a lot of tsa prep at the moment ) to help boost my application. I also wanted to know whether it would be possible to book a session with you to review my personal statement and for you to give me some tips on my application? Many thanks

Hey Bob! You're in a fantastic position and have clearly been putting in the work-well done! It seems that you've ticked all the boxes that you could realistically be expected to tick with your personal statement. My advice at this point would be to take stock of what you have done so far and see what you'd be actually interested in pursuing further, whether it's a project, essays, more reading, or something more out of the blue. It's a great time to foster actual interest in the subject and try things out for the sake of trying them out, rather than to directly benefit your personal statement. I'd be happy to talk this over with you, along with your application more broadly: there's a form in the description of this video that you can click on to fill out the relevant information, and then I'll be in touch shortly!

When you read books, do you make notes or anything or just read front to back? Asking because I’m scared of not retaining anything, but note taking makes reading a chore.

For non-fiction I take notes! It really is necessary to retain information in the long term. Not only do you have the notes to refer to, but the act of taking concise and thoughtful notes forces you to understand the material. It should feel like work, and will also feel unusual if you've not really done it before. An easy way to make it not feel like a chore is to keep the notes really concise-think a short paragraph or fewer than 10 bullet points per chapter

@@JoeMead do you take notes as you read or at the end of a chapter? Do you ever look at other peoples summaries / notes?

@@oblivious9609 I've done all of these at some point! Taking and understanding concise notes is the important part-whatever makes that more simple for you is the correct way, just try an approach and reflect on it as you go on.
