Careers and University Guidance

If you want to make a competitive university application in 2025, then you should be considering how you can take the subjects you study further, beyond which your teacher has taught you.

You can explore your subject in many ways, for example, by reading, as well as watching videos online, visiting museums, entering academic competitions, watching lectures, listening to podcasts, leading a CCA, completing MOOCs etc.

This is not just a list of activities, this is you demonstrating your interest and motivation in the subject that you want to study to a potential university.

Below are some suggested resources – these are not limited to Oxbridge candidates, instead they will give you some ideas on how you can take your exploration beyond the syllabus.
