This video has taken the whole term (6 weeks so far) to film in various parts so hope you enjoy! Follow me on Instagram (& I reply to all DMs so send me one!): SamsOxfordStudies Have a great Sunday, everyone!
Another great video ! As nice as some of the more modern rooms are, I think I would actually prefer the older buildings just to get the full classic Oxford experience.
First video filmed on a GoPro! Plenty to learn for next time (promise I normally know how to light a subject) xoxo Anyways, how was your weekend?! - mine was busy with exciting plans (hence an evening not morning upload!)
Your video came up on my screen and I decided to watch it. I am glad I did. You gave me a really good laugh when you answered the door. lol! You have a great sense of humor. Thank you, Jeff
Thanks for this video/vlog that let me learn more about some different types and designs of rooms at Oxford. Some designs are my favourite, especially upstairs and bookshelves on the ceilings. As an International A Level student, I am watching this to learn more about the universities I want to go to, including accommodation, design and infrastructure.
Gosh you're living in my old staircase 5 room. Still a bitter about how small it was compared to the opposite room. I wonder if they cleaned the doodle of "The Scream" off the pinboard
Oh my gosh. Your room is very similar to mine, except mine has an ensuite. Basic, but it does the job fine. The 'Levine Rooms' (if that's how you say it are ridiculous: literally looks like 4 star hotel...
Just asking btw do they do subjects of interior design/ interior architecture and how easy is it to get a offer for them like how much % of the acceptance rate❤ love this channel😊
literally any of these would be considered double or triple rooms in the usa😭 esp the one with the red carpet! an american uni would try to squeeze four people into it!
@@Sam.Kramer yes! my roommate and i are in a ~17 square meter room (prison cell). some unis' dorms have sinks, but unfortunately none of the doubles do unless you've got a suite (which comes with a lavatory and *potentially* a kitchenette) ((which is also pretty rare, because they like to put four students in a suite)).
How can we choose our own rooms? First it's ap difficult to choose a college with all what we want in the first place😅 and then deciding upon accommodation!?! International students don't even have any connections to advise them on these kind of unofficial stuff...
I look at the Oxford and I think that universities tear young people away from reality, and that it is impossible to return to reality after university illusions. As a result, few people in the world are capable of solving the problems that have accumulated before humanity. The best teacher is life itself. Philosophers, historians, lawyers and journalists must work in seven different businesses, communicate with a wide range of people and learn a living and practical psychology. Academic psychology is only suitable for intellectual narcissists to entertain their peers over cups of coffee. A practicing intellectual person does not need forty subjects studied in universities, but much less. So you need to come to the university once a year for a week or two not only to take a small number of exams (one exam per year), but above all to communicate with intelligent people who help to systematize the experience gained during discussions. . It is necessary to implement the principle of Socrates: it is not necessary to put ready-made theories in a person's brain, but to let theories be born in his brain. So we do not need conferences, but debates on questions from real life. And to have food for discussion, you have to immerse yourself in real life, and not be in an artificial university environm.
10:30 when you said that they give the good rooms to postgrads I laughed because it’s pretty much always the exact opposite 🥲 postgrads get the crap off site accomm far away from the college usually!
Hii, I am Ashmita Chakraborty from India. I wish to apply to Oxford University after my Bachelor's (which I'm presently persuing). I have a few queries, Can you help me with them? Is it possible to contact you by any means?
This is a bit disappointing for a University that is ranked in the top 5 and sometimes #1. I studied in France, at Universite' Grenoble Alpes, and my room had its own bathroom, a bigger fridge, and a nice desk next to a window looking towards trees and magnificent mountains.
@@Sam.Kramer You obviously don't get my point. An academic institution of that prestige must make sure they offer a top-quality life to its students. It involves everything, residences, healthcare, resource access, etc. College life is not just about courses and research. We are talking about Oxford here, not some peripherical university.
