    I'm not a prospective student, in fact I have a (temporary) lecturer's gig and will gradate from my Ph.D. in June, but I watch all of these videos because I am impressed by how well put together they are.

    You're just brilliant, Dr. Williams! Thank you so much for all the time and effort you put into these videos- they're invaluable. With regard to undergraduate-level reading (particularly for medicine), would it be better to mention specific research/report-style papers we might have read in a personal statement, as opposed to higher-level books, or simply writing about a topic in undergrad kind of detail?

    Dear Dr Williams,
    First of all, thank you so much for taking the time and effort to make these video. They have been really helpful in my university application. A question that has bothered me for months is: regarding your point about the need to express my takeaways/opinions from a super-curricular activity, if my comment proved to be naive or imprecise, could it potentially leave a bad first impression in the tutor?
    Thank you for your time,
    Jin

    • @JesusCollegeOxford1571
      @JesusCollegeOxford1571  Рік тому +6

      Thanks for your kind comment Jin!
      I would say it's always best to be willing to try and express an opinion, even if that opinion may have certain flaws of logic or expose gaps in knowledge. We're not expecting prospective students to have perfectly formed opinions, otherwise there would be little point in them receiving an education from us! More difficult, however, is when students simply refuse to express themselves for fear of failure.
      So, I would suggest that you get used to developing your thoughts on what you read, and get used to sharing those thoughts with people around you. Be open to their advice and criticism, but don't feel you have to fall in step with what everyone else thinks.

      Hi sir. Do you know Jesus? The college you work for is called Jesus College, and I was wondering if you know The Messiah, who said: "I am The Way, I am the truth, and I am the Life, no man comes to the Father (or to Heaven) but by Me". Jesus also said: whoever sins is a slave of it: (sin: lying (telling lies), stealing (even something as small as a pencil), hating someone in your thoughts (preconcieved murder), lust (lusting /wanting someone else' or their things), but whom the Son sets free, is free indeed. Jesus died on the Cross of calvary, a rugged wooden Cross, after being whipped, and beaten mercilessly, for your sin, and died, hours later on the Cross at Calvary, in Golgotha. Jesus, the Saviour of The World, died on the Cross 2000 years ago for your sins, sir. Jesus died on The Cross to save you from death, AND eternal death caused by sin. Believe in Him, and repent of your sins, please. Don't just work for a College Campus named after Him.

    • @JesusCollegeOxford1571

      Yes, mention it in your application along with your thoughts. It would only take a sentence: "Having read Miller v Prime Minister, I would argue that...." You can also refer to case law at interview, although this is not required, and you MUST make sure it is relevant to the questions you're asked. Don't just throw it in, and be sure to listen intently to the questions posed.

  • @valeriamamanis9708

    There is something I don't understand very well. When applying to university, how are supercurricular activities presented or demonstrated? Do we have to keep a kind of record of the small daily activities that we carry out as learning a subject? Is a work presented that demonstrates our knowledge of the subject? Or is certification from a contest (such as mathematics olympiads) or teacher required? Sorry, I didn't understand how supercurriculars are registered in our academic profile.

    • @JesusCollegeOxford1571
      @JesusCollegeOxford1571  Рік тому +2

      It's a good question. Primarily your super curricular activities are presented in the personal statement submitted to UCAS when you apply to universities. The breadth and depth of your subject interest will also be tested at interview at universities like Oxford. But, you don't need any formal certification of activities having been completed.

    Thank you for this very educational video, Dr Williams! I had a few questions. Do watching youtube video essays related to my subject and reading research studies count as supercurriculars? Where do we mention these things? And lastly, could you suggest some supercurriculars for someone looking to study psychology?

    • @JesusCollegeOxford1571
      @JesusCollegeOxford1571  Рік тому +2

      Thanks for your comment. Yes, watching UA-cam video essays can be relevant. These will be especially convincing evidence of your aptitude to study if they come from universities. Reading research studies would be even more impressive.
      You can describe these super curricular activities on your UCAS personal statement, which is the form you use to apply to Oxford and all other UK universities.
      There are some suggested subject resources here: www.ox.ac.uk/admissions/undergraduate/courses/suggested-subject-resources But, when it comes to reading around psychology, it's really important for you to develop your own passion.
      Take the suggested readings as a starting point, and pursue some particular matters that grab you.

    • @JesusCollegeOxford1571
      @JesusCollegeOxford1571  6 місяців тому

      You can certainly do that, perhaps as a way to start a personal statement. We want to get to know you a bit, so telling us the true story of how you became interested in maths is fine. But we also want evidence that you are ready to study at university. which means stretching and challenging yourself. This can be with books/research papers, but can also include maths competitions and challenging maths puzzles.

    Hello, Sir Williams. Thanks for these videos. They are actually a complete package for guidance.
    I am applying to Oxbridge for 2024 entry for medicine. My question is, what if I show in my personal statement that I am working on the issue of mental health in a way that I am working to answer certain questions unresolved in this field, trying to give a solution which may take a particular theory to a different direction. Including this, I am working practically to help particularly young people and students to deal with mental health problems and I am working to develop a whole sort of organization to do that. Is it something that should be mentioned in Personal statement?? What kind of impression it might leave to the professors assessing me as an applicant?
    Waiting patiently for your reply. Thanks

      HI Wajiha, that sounds really good. We like it when prospective students demonstrate a willingness to contribute fresh ideas. All you would need to do is to make clear you retain an open mind, and that you are aware that any solutions you may come up with will need to be tested and reconciled with ongoing research. In other words, don't say you have all of the answers and you're absolutely sure of them!

Like the grades that I must obtain). So I am planning to do some classes from a Canadian High School back in my home country to apply. They will help me set up on the website to apply to universities in both the UK and Canada, but I'm wondering if i can state that in my personal statement that I didn't meet the grade requirements so I find alternative methods to achieve those grades by doing a different exam other than my home country.

      You can set this out in your personal statement and it is unlikely to do you any harm, provided that you are on course to obtain the grades necessary to be admitted to Oxford. I wouldn't spend much of the personal statement describing the situation. For the most part, the personal statement needs to concentrate on your academic interests and what you've done about them. So literally no more than two sentences I would've thought will be sufficient.
      You could also ask your teacher when they complete their reference on you for the UCAS form to mention that you have obtained qualifications in different jurisdictions.

    I have one question - I will get my class 12th marks in May
    So should I apply this year or in 2025

      First check if you have eligible qualifications (CBSE or CISCE). See here for details: www.ox.ac.uk/admissions/undergraduate/applying-to-oxford/for-international-students/international-qualifications
      You can apply with predicted grades, and could likely apply in 2024. But I'm not familiar with the Indian system, so it may be worth contacting the relevant department at Oxford.

      Similar, but you need to pretend to be a masters student. So, even more reading of the latest research, and even more thinking about how you would like to contribute to your field. Which MSc are you thinking of applying for?

      I had already have a master's degree in Applied Biochemistry but currently works as a Lecturer with a College of Education, hence, needs an Education MSc.

    do gcse matter like a level?

    • @JesusCollegeOxford1571
      @JesusCollegeOxford1571  4 місяці тому

      GCSEs are considered seriously, but it is possible to be competitive despite relatively weak or mixed GCSE results. It may be that there are good reasons to conclude that GCSEs are not representative of an applicant's abilities (such as illness, undiagnosed learning difficulties etc).

      Thet may have improved your thinking and reasoning skills. In that sense they will help. But simply participating in MUN will not give an advantage to an applicant. It is best to read/watch/listen to academic content that people studying your chosen course would read/watch/listen to.
