  • The university decisions process was a rollercoaster. getting rejected by my top uk choice but then getting accepted into two exceptional untraditional universities. it was a very hard choice in the end but i absolutely cannot wait to be studying at Code in Berlin starting August and i cannot wait to share the experience with you all :)

    I finally found a youtuber I can relate to! The fact that you overthink your uni decisions so much is literally my life right now. I got into 4 different universities in different countries, but last minute took a gap year, because I started overthinking about the programs that I chose and didn't feel ready or excited to go to university. How you accept your overthinking is really inspiring, cause I tend to hate myself for it. I know you're gonna be busy with uni now but keep up these videos please🥺🥺🥺 they really help me feel more normal:)

      thank you! i think it’s hard to judge from an outside perspective until you learn more about Code and it’s business prospects, for instance it has ties to big companies such as facebook and porsche! but i appreciate your opinion and i do still think Minerva and LSE are exceptional university choices :)

      I studied economics at a level and enjoyed it very much and knew it was useful in the business world and I’ve developed a big interest in philosophy so that’s what initially drew me to that course. i then started to get more into business books and learnt what product management entailed and liked the idea of studying it (I felt like the skills were more practical in a business sense)

      at German public universities all students pay the same, regardless of German, EU or international non-EU student, it's usually €200-400 / semester (mostly a student public transport ticket, admin fees and SU fees, no tuition). CODE is insanely expensive compared to what he could've payed had he gone to a traditional German uni
