Recording and editing this video reminded me of how much fun I had when I used to do UA-cam! 💖 Lemme know what you think I should make videos about now. I'll try to post more often 🚀🌟
Glad to see you back man. I hope to see more of your content, especially about your Cambridge Experience, how you've changed after going to Cambridge, why you fell out of love in Physics, and also what you learnt after your internship with Ali Abdaal. Regardless of what you post , I'll stick around and watch tbh
Ooo thank you for the ideas! I still have footage from a "Day in the Life of Ali Abdaal's Intern" that I never got around to editing. I should turn it into something 🤔
You are such a motivation! Currently year 12 slowly but surely working through my A levels with hopes of studying Astrophysics. Your videos have helped me so much in finally pursuing what I really want to do and not just to do whatever everyone else is doing. Whatever you decide to pursue in these coming years, I wish you all the best. Love from Northern Ireland
Omg how long I started watching your videos year ago for my alevels and now I wrote the exams and got the results as well looking forward for many university regarding videos since I'm going to be there ..and thanks alot for helping throughout my a levels ❤ loved your work and keep engaged and a edit - got A* A * A* maths, physics and computer science..I owe you man ❤
You were the person who introduced me to Anki and ever since using it I ended up getting a confirmed place at Imperial with A*A*A as my A-Level Grades And for that I want to thank you!
@@amirumar3669 Hi My 2 main revision methods were: Anki and exam questions/past papers Once I had finished learning content from a lesson I would normally make Anki flashcards that same day Also that same day I would also look through exam style questions from that topic Towards an exam, I would review all of my Anki flashcards from each Module to make sure I knew the content ( Id say blurting is also good to make sure you are confident in all areas) As well as that, I integrated doing past papers around 3 to 4 weeks before my exams started and did 1 past paper a day until my exams (e.g Tuesday - Maths, Wednesday - Chemistry Thursday - Physics etc.) I'd say the most important thing is to pay 100% attention in classes so then when you do have to revise over a topic you remember it from when you learnt it in lesson Also, I reviewed my Anki flashcards everyday so as long as you are staying consistent with your Anki you will be successful insha allah
omg what u said at 5:07 , it's so interesting to hear the opinion of a Cambridge graduate on the differences between US & UK undergrad studies haha. I'm a year 13 international student applying to universities soon and I'm applying to schools both in the uk and the us. My course for applying to Cambridge would be natsci-physical(as u did). I really loved Cambridge when i visited there during summer. Natsci would also be (to my understanding), the most flexible science course u can get in the uk. But at the same time, I really enjoy literature, psychology and history, did lots of supercurricular in those as well. So if i end up in the us, i can get a taste of all of them and even minor in, for example, comparative literature, on top of my STEM major. This is something that uk unis probably won't be able to offer me. So at the moment, I'm really struggling to decide whether I would give up the opportunity of applying with early decision (which has a binding nature if u get in) for the slim possibilities of getting into Cambridge.
Hi, just wanted to stop by and give you a big thanks for giving some great tips in those videos for achieving an A* in A level Maths and physics and chem because those books you recommended in some of those videos were really helpful and helped me achieve three A* this year in A level maths physics and chem.❤
super interested in your vlogs from uni!! also if you are open to this idea, I would love to see a sit down of you talking about why you fell out of love with physics at Cambridge. A little concerning for me since I will be studying chemistry at Oxford://
Hey bro you’ve been such a help to me since i started sixth form, we did the same subjects so ur vids and github was such a blessing to me and i really appreciate it! Its a shame you left cus I got accepted into Cambridge for engineering via the ARP last month (thankfully cus i got 5 a*s 🙏) and would of loved to buy you a coffee sometime 😂. Cant wait to see what u do in the future, Wishing you all the best.
Could you create videos about basics to app development as a complete beginner? Or what are the most important things you've learnt through app development :)
Hm! I think there are a lot of folks who’d do a better job than me. I would recommend learning React Native with Expo - it’s the easiest way I found to develop apps. But I’ve really enjoyed it. I think I enjoying developing apps in general because you can write a few lines of code and see the app instantly update (compared to say spending a day in a physics lab and seeing no results). Also, when you share it then people all around the world can use it within minutes which is still crazy when I think about it!
Hey, I just started a levels and am perusing medicine, do you have any tips into getting into Cambridge (could be a video idea), and do you have any links which relate to medicine, e.g. working in labs or something. I love your videos and really want to get into Cambridge, so happy to see you uploading again.
Hi! I think Rosia Li's channel and a few other Cambridge medics may do a better job of helping as I think the process for medicine is a little different from most channels. I think there are like 3 or 4 current Cambridge medics who may videos? Searching it on UA-cam should help :)
Hey Ray, I started a levels and am doing further maths. In your opinion is further maths advantages when applying to Cambridge for medicine, and would you say its a contributing reason for why you got in.
Hey! I think applying for medicine is a little different. From what I heard from medic friends, many universities don't see maths and further maths as two separate A-levels but instead as one subject. Some chose to drop further maths for another science instead. But I'd recommend asking some of the current Cambridge undergrad medic UA-camrs like Rosia Li. They may have a better answer :)
Hey, it’s the Dell 24 Monitor | S2421HN - 60.45cm(23.8") I bought 4 of them because it’s cheap but still sturdy. The colours are okay so definitely for anyone doing professional colour work. But I mostly code so it’s fine for me :) Once every couple months, the screen does have some residual but you just go to settings and turn on LCD Conditioning, let it run for an hour and it fixes itself again
Hello Ray. I'm starting Year 11 now, and im applying to A level. I want to pursue physics for uni and career, as i am very passionate for the subject. I want to do everything i can to get into Oxbridge for physics. However, i have an inability to like chemistry. I easily get 9s but that's just because i revise, without passion. Im applying for: Math, Further math, Physics, and Biology for A levels. Do you think OXBRIDGE would need me to take chemistry (as i am aware chemistry is a big part in physics), or are my choices well enough? Thanks!!
Hey! I think that's okay, the general recommendation I heard before applying was to do at least 2 sciences (of Chemistry, Biology, and Physics -- maybe they count Computer Science too these days?) and maths (and further maths if you can). But I found A-level Chemistry to be more interesting than GCSE Chemistry so I'd suggest not ruling it out completely just yet. Personally, I really disliked writing essays (as you have to do in A-level Biology) so picked A-level Chemistry as I knew I needed 2 sciences.
@@RAmjadthanks for the reply, I appreciate it a lot! You’re right, I’ve heard a level chemistry was lots of fun from many students, but I just can’t get myself to learn about hydrocarbons when I am more focused on energy transfers in physics, and the transfer of electrical impulses. I most likely won’t do chem, but I won’t rule it out! As I said, I thank you for your reply, and I hope I’ll make it there one day 🙏
Ah I first learnt when I was 8 and have been learning and building projects ever since! I didn’t build anything during A-levels and had little time during university to code personal projects but I’m glad I now have the time again

I remember watching you anki and Alevel videos when I was in year 11, now I’m going into year 13 then applying to uni. Time flies.
great to see you back!
Nice to hear from you Ray !
It's great to see you're back! I am excited to see more content from you : ) It has really been great and helpful watching you videos, thanks a lot!

i actually also love the pace u speak, both the fast version(which gave me a sense of productivity)and the current slower version(more calm)
He’s finally back! 🎉
Its really great to see you back again, your university content has been really helpful. good to see you are doing well!
Thank you! I'm glad it was useful :)
Would love to see a video about your experience at Cambridge (in terms of the academics) and why it 'killed' your passion for physics.
Welcome back Bro. Really missed you. Love from Pakistan.
The goat has returned 🎉
Just when we needed him, He returned!

wait so youdid 5 a-levels or 4 a-levels and an EPQ?
You're back 😁
omg i went to a japan school trip in the summer as well as our year 12 cultural trip!!
ahaha by coincidence i also live in Singapore

Do you know any way to get Professor Povey's Perplexing problems pdf i can not find it anywhere😢
its a lot expensive book for here in India
Hi! I tried to find a PDF copy back in the day and unfortunately couldn't find one. Send me a message on Instagram and I may be able to help
