Your channel is just amazing! This is literally the best out here on yt! For some reason there’s not much on RU-vid for E+M. Just signed up to your 1-1 support hope you got it even though it’s August 😅😊

Hey Presence, i decided to apply to Oxford really late (in September), so i feel really behind, so i love all your tips and advice, it's always calming to hear some sort of direction. and plus i love your attitude towards not getting in, its truly inspirational. I would love to participate in the group zoom calls, that'd be cool

Hii! Thank you so much for the tips. I'm also considering applying to Oxford E&M so this video is so useful. I have submitted the form in the description, asking for 1/1 support. I hope you don't mind checking it out. How lucky I am to stumble upon this video cause I'm seriously looking everywhere for Oxford - application support haha. Have a nice day!!

@presence3589 3 года назад

sorry i just saw this x how did it go?

@markferreira8767 4 года назад

This was really helpful, Thanks! It does make me a lot more worried though, when did you start preparing for the TSA? BTW I would love to do the weekly calls to discuss Econ and Management issues

@presence3589 3 года назад

i started 4 months ago which i dont recommend i know people who got in started later - i over worried and it didnt end up well :)

@bhavikakumar7336 3 года назад

Hi I just discovered your videos and they’re really great, you mentioned that one shouldn’t mention wealth of nations haha, any particular reason why?

@presence3589 3 года назад

Thank you! Just my view and from talking to others - its a thick one that professors may not expect A level students to get and its just a very common one so others might also mention it - tho this is just my thoughts and a few others so if you feel you want to then do what feels right :) no right answer

@samreen3881 4 года назад

Heyyy where did could I find the past papers to practice for (TSA)? Like the book that you showed and does it have the answers at the back??

@presence3589 4 года назад

hiyaaa , here are the links ^_^ TSA past papers - www.admissionstesting.org/for-test-takers/thinking-skills-assessment/tsa-oxford/preparing-for-tsa-oxford/ ( under section 1 and section 2 ) For the other books, I bought them on amazon and yes the answers are in the book too : there are 1000 questions in this book so if you only get 1 book I would get this one, it also has explanations for the real TSA past papers: amzn.to/3eKHNSR if you want to get all the others then here are the links : think can you think:amzn.to/2VUmju2 Ace the TSA : amzn.to/2Y0U6Ew I also got this book ( though I didn't get to the interview stage so can't comment how useful it actually was ) : amzn.to/2xZqKvs

@MP-nl6he 3 года назад

What steps would you take to advise people like me who don’t have economics a level

@presence3589 3 года назад

As long as you have maths thats good - try to do more reading outside your A levels and explain clearly why you want to do it in your PS and why you didn't choose it for A level ,i think this will help

@dawhat8561 3 года назад

I got 70% on my first practice paper for TSA, i did the specimen test, is that an accurate score or a one off?

@presence3589 3 года назад

I had a range of different scores from different past papers, i would just do all of them once and try again if you have time

@dawhat8561 3 года назад

@@presence3589 I wrote the 2020 past paper today and got 72/100, I just want to know where that puts me.

@presence3589 3 года назад

@@dawhat8561 above 70 is great! it depends on the year and how other people in your year are doing - oxford college websites publish stats on those who get interviews, 70 there's a high chance - but again depends on other factors ofc

@dawhat8561 3 года назад

@@presence3589 I have taken science stream with physics and chemistry, If I were to get below 90% say 87-86% in chemistry but my overall was still above 90% (A*AA) and my TSA score was 73-74 do you think i would atleast be considered?

@presence3589 3 года назад

@@dawhat8561 @Arya Pitre As long as you meet the requirements then you can apply and if you score in the top for the TSA then I think you would get an interview, sorry I cant say anything more as I am not the admissions tutor but just know the TSA is really important when it comes to whether you get an interview or not

If u do tsa and do really good or really bad, do you get an interview regardless

@presence3589 3 года назад

you have to do really well on the TSA - that's most important for an interview

Hi! Nobody in my family has ever studied in Finance so I want to be prepared because Oxford is my dream school! Would I be able to get an undergrad in Economics and Management and then get a Graduate Degree in Finance?

@presence3589 4 года назад

No one in mine did either , I cant answer that sorry it depends on a lot of factors 😅 but never let your background be a limitation. You definitely can do whatever you want regardless of what your family did as long as you work hard towards it. And from what I heard you dont need a graduate degree to get into finance ( unless you want to do it ofc )

Can you please recommend books for E&M?

@presence3589 4 года назад

I think if you have more time than the basics like freakanomica and undercover economist is good but I wouldn't write it in the PS.. I have a few books I mentioned in the description which would be the ones I recommend 😊 , btw I'm doing a personal statement call for year 12s on Friday x dm me on insta if you want to know more about it and join xx ❤ good luck

hi I was wondering what you think the best a level combo is? Should I do fm?

@presence3589 2 года назад

Yes fm will really help . Fm , maths , physics , econ is a popular combo but I recommend do what you enjoy and believe you will get the best grade , maths is a must tho
