Hi guys, this is my first video!
I'm very new to trying something like this, and very nervous, but just doing this to keep a record and for my own reflection on my academic journey.
I'm a First Year Repeat student, studying for a BA at the University of Galway. I previously had passed in my subjects of English Literature and Information Technology, and unfortunately was unable to complete my third subject in time and had to repeat a year, and because Psychology in Ireland is a competitive subject it cannot be repeated again, so I then took some time out to figure out what I wanted and decided on Sociology and Political Science as a good alternative, since it still relates to working with people, society, etc.
I also don't come from an academic background and have a learning disability, so I also thought if I do make more videos in future its to share my experience of that and my growth if I progress.
Can find the reaction to results part at: 22:21
I do suffer with anxiety and depression so sometimes I often repeat myself and say "erm" a lot; it's just my way of thinking out loud, so this video is a live reaction of my results, and to determine whether or not I can succeed in Uni and go onto second year.
It's mainly just me nervous and ranting as well, so I do apologize in advance! :) lol
