yeah it was especially relatable when he talked about expecting Computer science to be more fun rather than just maths and some boring garbage, and that week 5 thing probably exists because the lecturers ramp up the workload from 0-100 real quick. I remember coming into Quantitative maths 3rd lecture in and it was like the material was sped up by 10x
This. This is exactly what Cambridge is like. The intensity of the work, the drinking, week 5, the realisation that every student around you was once the best in their school. My time here has been exactly like this (with a fuckton more rowing though) EDIT: Nah you slandered my college I take it all back
I just started my phd at Cambridge this term and I've been mainly in the lab everyday all day.. post grad life is certainly different than undergrad but your video gave me so much inspiration to go out there and enjoy the experience of being in this magical place. we only have it once in our lives. what a beautiful video.
I graduated ten years ago - this video brings back a lot of memories and is unexpectedly moving, kudos! PS: take it from me, go to lectures. Every one. You’re right that in a perfect world they’re not the most efficient way of gaining information. But the world isn’t perfect, and attending will save you work/mental stress in the long run
@@Omie01 There is more to a university course than lectures. practical classes, supervisions, support etc. And I do actually go to lectures because I have a severe case of FOMO, but often I believe my learning would be much more efficient without the travel cost, and where I can pause ans research in my own time
rarely like or comment but this was just amazing, especially because i didnt expect anything, it was just a random video that popped up. Found a true gem of comedy
As someone who was born in Cambridge and just finished their first year at uni this video portrays both Cambridge and the highs and lows of uni amazingly well ❤
From a recent Cambridge grad, awesome video! Just one thing… don’t let this video discourage you about girton!! It’s only 15 mins by bike which for Cambridge standards is far away but anywhere else is a normal commute. Lovely grounds and people. Other than that looks like you had a pretty awesome first year, wish you all the best!
Holy Fuck. That was hands-down amazing. The storytelling, the relatability, the videography, the humour, everything was just on point (apart from the North Acton accom slander). Keep it up bro, good shit - inspired me to improve my own content asw
This was very nostalgic for me having graduated from cambridge cs in 2023 :) very well done on the video! (And also excellent song choice at the end :) )
Really REALLY good video. as a current gcse student who wants to pursue compsci, this puts a bit more perspective into what university actually is. Wishing you fame with this channel and further success in life and Cambridge!
I start in Oct at Girton and this honestly made me feel a lot better about it, I’m feeling nervous and excited but mostly nervous about making friends and you seem to have a great group! Loved this video
As a person who chose not to go to uni and upmost despised it. I’m actually freshly disproven about the life and culture there is to be had. I probably would have went to uni for the experience however I am not an academic individual at all. I rather learn through trial and error and practical tasks which is perfectly normal. I started my level 4 apprenticeship a couple months back after searching for nearly a year. I’m a bit disappointed I didn’t get to experience uni however me and all my mates still go out on weekends, hit the gym in the week and attract all these memories whilst doing our apprenticeships. Not sure why I’ve yapped ok about this for so long however yeah, thought I’d share my experience and an alternate route to uni.
I don't usually comment but first watched this like a week ago, now moving out is getting real and I am watching it again. Why? Because it's SUCH a good video.
I like the effort you’ve put into making this video, very professional. Slow down the pace a little and it’s perfect. I’ve subbed, looking forward to more
From someone a decade further down the road, it's worth remembering that you're not in the outside world, you are still a kid and that none of what you're doing really matters. Don't get too worried about it and enjoy it while you can.
This was such a real take on the first year of uni. I started my physics course at uni this year and went thru the exact same learning process as you did. Crazy how that 'complete freedom' that you get when starting uni affected you in almost exactly the same way as it did me. Great vid!
What a ride of a video, Hayden!! Loved it all the way through, from the storytelling and humour to the editing. Respect for filming everything on the phone!
Wow. This was an interesting peek into the life of a cambridge student. I did my undergrad at a much smaller uni, currently doing my msc at Durham. The matriculation process is amazing, and the workload is only manageable with effective time management. I've learned the hard way to not be too hard on yourself and accept that regardless of privilege, we are all human. Best of luck, computer nerd! Regards, A psychology nerd :)
This is a very cool video! I visited Jesus college before, and I am currently trying to apply to cambridge! The TMUA is so challenging for me, I've been doing so many past papers for it, I really hope it works out
Inspiring performances on display here and an excellent life lesson or two. This would have helped me massively before my first year, and I might do something similar for my second year. Nice job Hayden, be proud of this video, its really good.
Incredible video! As someone who just graduated uni studying CS too, this captured the chaotic Freshers uni experience in a nostalgic and wholesome way. Keep it up bro! 🤩
This was such a good video. Im hoping to start Uni in 2 years, but I still don't really know what to expect. Not Cambridge, but either way This was such a good visualisation for Uni. The editing was amazing, and the music taste apealed to me very much (Pink Floyd n Led Zeppelin, my 2 Favourites). Keep up the good work, mate!
I am almost done with my Bachelors, and the last few minutes of the video really hit hard. 4 years of uni passed so fast and I wish I enjoyed every bit of it.
What a great video - definitely something to show sixth form students getting ready for their first year of uni! I also think you beautifully captured the Cambridge experience…. Glad you would’ve put Homerton in A tier and didn’t put HSPS as a fake subject lol
Didn’t know what to expect but this shit was fire
i died at tom
Okay what the fuck; why was this no joke one of the best videos I’ve watched on RUclips
Fr
Dimo
actually a really quite good summary of a lot of peoples first year and the video prospective students should watch
Strongly agree

Out of all the first year at uni videos I’ve watched, this one is the best.

This was such a good watch! Don’t stop
posting please hahaha
Insanely good vid, ending was incredible. Please continue making theseeee
I'm going to Uni this year and this video has really struck a chord, you've a real talent for storytelling. Thank you for sharing :)

@yeonua5236amazing studying at uom rn

Bro this is one of the best youtube videos I've ever watched, this is genuinely incredible! Please continue making more like this!!
W VID HAYDEN, thanks for giving us a great perspective and insight on what 1st year at university is like!!!!
This stuff definitely depends on the uni
I just started my phd at Cambridge this term and I've been mainly in the lab everyday all day.. post grad life is certainly different than undergrad but your video gave me so much inspiration to go out there and enjoy the experience of being in this magical place. we only have it once in our lives. what a beautiful video.
The music choices in this video were nothing short of exquisite, keep it up man :))

When they are all recorded and you can save yourself an hour total of travel time what is the benefit?
@@KtT-sn8cy ur paying thousands to watch videos online? smart.
@@Omie01i mean, yeah? People can choose to spend their money however they want

I aspire to be where you are today! Love your attitude to uni and spirit and hope you have the best summer break man! 😊
Ah thanks a lot. You too!
rarely like or comment but this was just amazing, especially because i didnt expect anything, it was just a random video that popped up. Found a true gem of comedy
Lil tom drank so much he missed paper 2
unreal video man this is amazing
nice pfp man
Absolutely love your editing and “production” good luck for your upcoming years.
As someone who was born in Cambridge and just finished their first year at uni this video portrays both Cambridge and the highs and lows of uni amazingly well ❤
wow this video is actually amazing i always avoided it in my youtube feed but I was like why not give it a chance and I DO NOT REGRET..
Graduated 11 years ago now but this really brought back uni life! Enjoy it while it lasts 😊

This is an excellent video, hope this blows up!

Best video I’ve watched in a long time !!
W VID HAYDEN, thanks on giving us a great perception and understanding on what 1st year at univeristy may be like!!!!!
Thanks so much for this video it was great, really motivated me to work hard as I’m planning to apply to Cambridge for next year
This was very nostalgic for me having graduated from cambridge cs in 2023 :) very well done on the video!

Thought it was gonna be one of them videos sat down, but the production value is amazing
Now, this video is absolutely amazing
I start in Oct at Girton and this honestly made me feel a lot better about it, I’m feeling nervous and excited but mostly nervous about making friends and you seem to have a great group! Loved this video
Take advantage of the city, and don't hesitate to try new things. You won't get these 3/4 years back
I was not expecting to see my own face in this lol. Great video, though. ✌

This video is spectacular.

Amazing vid, man. Hope this year's going well too!
Prepare to become one with the Intel Lab haha.

you should make more content, this was AMAZING!!!!

This made me ungodly excited for freshers week and first year
Inspiring performances on display here and an excellent life lesson or two. This would have helped me massively before my first year, and I might do something similar for my second year. Nice job Hayden, be proud of this video, its really good.
Another easy W for trinity!!
Jokes aside, good video, please make more
I’m getting nervous for my arrival, so this was a big help. Thank you.
bro got into cambridge 🎉
Not sure how this was on my for you page, but was best video Ive watched this year. Great editing and lovely message, W video
Incredible video! As someone who just graduated uni studying CS too, this captured the chaotic Freshers uni experience in a nostalgic and wholesome way. Keep it up bro! 🤩
what a masterpiece of a video
I have watched this video 8 times already
my freshman year rn, love this vid smmmmmmm. concorde at the end 🥺
This was such a good video. Im hoping to start Uni in 2 years, but I still don't really know what to expect. Not Cambridge, but either way This was such a good visualisation for Uni. The editing was amazing, and the music taste apealed to me very much (Pink Floyd n Led Zeppelin, my 2 Favourites). Keep up the good work, mate!
im not planning on going to nearly as a prestigious uni but this makes me look forward to the experience when i go next year :) thank you
Good job surviving your first year👏
Pretty much encapsulates the first year experience, just starting second year and this is somehow giving me nostalgia
I am almost done with my Bachelors, and the last few minutes of the video really hit hard. 4 years of uni passed so fast and I wish I enjoyed every bit of it.
Banger video, loved it
nah ts is fire, we need more
This was such a good video, great editing and GREAT storytelling! Hopefully you will take all of year 1 knowledge through year 2.
bro that's an amazing video and so funny congratulations
This is interesting to watch as someone born and raised in Cambridge
easily one of the most beautiful campus's in the world
That library was BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!! 🥹😭😭😭
BCNR on the outro was incredible
Didn't know what to expect nor why this was recommend but I really enjoyed it.
this was so fuuny you deserve more subs
I'm about to start a hsps (not a real) degree at Hughes, I'm even more pumped to go after watching this vid...
Sorry just got to the part where you violated my college DISLIKE
This was a great video, good work!
As someone who lives in Cambridge, seeing all the clips and recognising nearly all the locations was pretty sick ngl
Awesome video man, a relatively small channel with the skills of a veteran
What a great video - definitely something to show sixth form students getting ready for their first year of uni! I also think you beautifully captured the Cambridge experience…. Glad you would’ve put Homerton in A tier and didn’t put HSPS as a fake subject lol
we loved this, from the third years
great video!! captured my first year experience really well haha
the editing was insane
