I'd love to know more about Pembroke college as Tolkien was an exceptional professor there. In his biography it states that back in his day the minimum requirement for lectures a year for student was around 36 but him being a next level philologist and lingual prodigy did around 135 a year. It's opposite Christchurch
After watching the video with Eve, I thought it would be pretty difficult to beat the standards set by her but I have to admit, I was wrong :) By the way, would you be able to do St. Hugh's college as well? Thanks so much! Love the videos~~
@@tomkim84 no but I teach HumSci and often have Hugh’s students- and I interviewed for them this year! I’ve spent quite a bit of time there (my college is Magdalen- very different and both have their perks!)
Oooo Ibz would be best for Anne's because he's there now! I've eaten in the hall there once and it was very modern but lovely. The library is brand new as well
@@RosieCrawford I’m a fresher there I’m just nosy hahahaha! especially because I don’t know what the people are like because we weren’t allowed to socialise etc last term :((
@@RosieCrawford ok this is awks ur too nice. i wanna know what the reputation of somerville is like, tory or not, rich or poor. Also what practical difference does a rich or poor college have on its students? Like do u get more perks at st johns or smth? Finally, would u say studying ur undergrad course was a route to finance? I wanna do history at ox and go finance but dont know whether that outs me at a disadvantage. Thanks lmao ur kindness has shut me this hater up
@@jialinli3298 hahahaha thank you and no worries at all!!! Sooo i actually do know about Somerville. It was one of the first colleges to admit women in the 1870s and has the most gorgeous grounds. Everyone I know who went there is lovely and seems to have loved their experience. I'm also pretty sure somerville hosts a free summer school for access and outreach called Universify as well. In terms of the college wealth impacting your experience, certain colleges do offer more scholarships, travel grants and cheaper rent (John's being at the front of my mind for that rn - they also offer a "book grant" (colloquial name) each year to buy resources. My college did offer travel grants by application and had a hardship fund but the accommodation was more expensive and also wasn't offered for all 3 years. For finance, I've seen people do all sorts of courses. Generally a maths or econ based course would be best, but i know someone who did dual honors History and Economics who is now in finance. Hope that helps!
Rosie is SUCH an underrated RUclipsr- as is this channel! Loving these podcasts :)
Thank you so much! Hopefully got more in the works😊
