Wall of Student Stories

"Eye-opening is the word I'd use. I came into OSS with a rough idea of my career direction, but specialized guidance from the tutors gave me real confidence and the education I needed to pursue it. A lecture on torts, contract, and equity law was the most educational class I took, diving into the specifics of negligence and what it really means to build or break a contract. Before OSS, I wasn't accustomed to what it might mean to study law, but now I see it as a genuinely viable option for me. If you're on the fence about applying, go for it; you'll meet people from around the world who expand your worldview, and the academic tuition here is of such high calibre that it prepares you for what university study is actually like."

"One of the standout keynote lectures was about mindset, it really helped set the foundation for how to manage time and stay focused on what we want to achieve. Among the academic lectures, biochemistry deepened one of us into researching the subject further, while the other found new interest in finance and behavioral economics, rediscovering a passion for the subject. Between lectures there's been plenty of free time, going to the mall, the gym, and making new friends. On the weekend we took a school trip to Cambridge, exploring the market square and doing a photo hunt around the city with friends, it was a great chance to see another university town and have fun together. It's not as academic as you'd think, there's a lot of free time to enjoy, we'd definitely recommend joining."

"One of the things I enjoyed most about OSS was the variety of teaching, from tutorials to seminars, because I always felt like I was learning something new. My favourite subject was black holes, and the seminars inspired a new interest in cosmology and astrophysics that I'm now considering studying in the future. I also loved exploring Blenheim Palace and Cambridge, as well as taking part in social activities like casino night and karaoke. I'd definitely recommend OSS. It's a fun experience where you learn a lot, make new friends and discover new academic interests."

"One of the most unique aspects of OSS was meeting professionals and academics – the level of interaction with them was truly exceptional. I particularly enjoyed the sessions on Pharmacology and Biochemistry. The programme was intensive and academically challenging, but it was also incredibly fun and rewarding. What made OSS stand out to me was the perfect balance between academic depth and social experiences. The atmosphere encouraged curiosity, collaboration, and reflection on my future. Overall, OSS made me more engaged with my studies and gave me valuable material and insight for my personal statement."

"Exposing is the word I'd use. I was exposed to so many topics related to my stream that I'd never considered before. A seminar on electrical engineering really stood out, helping me visualize what a career in the field could actually look like. These two weeks gave me a real taste of what university will be like, and helped me understand that mechanical engineering is where my interest lies. You have to try it; even if you don't end up loving every part, you'll learn so much about your interests and about yourself. It's rewarding either way. Eye-opening is exactly how I'd describe it; we learned about topics like topology and star spectroscopy that I'd never encountered in school. The academics were to a really high standard, and every class taught me something I never would have known otherwise. After two weeks, I've narrowed down my interests so much more clearly, just based on what I genuinely enjoyed. My advice: 100%, do it. You'll see incredible places, meet people from across the world, and have an amazing experience."

"I joined Stream D (Politics, Philosophy, and Global Issues), where I explored Politics, International Law, and Economics in real depth. I especially enjoyed learning how financial institutions and regulation work, and the classes at Oriel College made the academic experience feel truly immersive and motivating. The tutorials were incredibly valuable, particularly for UK university applications, as tutors offered clear guidance on personal statements and admissions. Over these two weeks, I narrowed my academic focus toward PPE. OSS also strengthened my interest in applying to the UK, giving me clarity, confidence, and a real sense of university-level study."

"What stood out most to me was the exceptional teaching and variety of learning opportunities. The programme allowed me to explore subjects like International Relations and International Law in depth, while also giving insights into how to apply to UK universities. Small tutorials, expert guidance, and engaging lectures made the academic experience challenging, inspiring, and unforgettable. Beyond academics, the people I met made the experience truly special. Making friends from around the world, exploring Oxford and Cambridge, and joining social activities like game nights created a supportive, fun, and enriching environment. OSS helped me grow academically and personally, shaping my future ambitions and giving me confidence to pursue my interests in Law and International Relations."

"I participated in Stream C, which covers Economics, Politics, International Relations, Philosophy, and a bit of Psychology. As someone interested in Psychology, I especially enjoyed the Forensic Psychology lecture. I also found the Law sessions on Innovative Policy fascinating, exploring how legal decisions balance consumer rights, business interests, and international differences. I also loved the social activities, which allowed us to interact with other students. Overall, OSS was an inspiring and fun experience, and I would do it again."

"What I loved most about OSS was how interdisciplinary the courses were. I came mainly interested in Economics and International Relations, but I explored many other fascinating topics. The classes were interactive, with debates and discussions, and the tutors were inspiring, teaching both academic content and skills like giving strong presentations. The group activities helped everyone connect and work together. I met amazing people from around the world, making lifelong friendships, and the whole experience was truly inspiring."

"It's been an absolute delight, interacting with such a diverse group of thinkers, people so passionate about their ideas and with a level of knowledge I hadn't encountered before. The biggest challenge was the pre-reading, some of it was intense, but tackling it with determination helped me develop the ability to read fast and really understand. In free time we explored cafes and restaurants across Cambridge, played some rugby, and just roamed the city as a group. The trip to Anglesey Abbey stood out too, a beautiful, deeply historic place with wonderfully maintained gardens. Cambridge itself is quaint and cosy, reflecting me more than Oxford's city feel, and subjects like behavioural economics have deeply enriched how I think about politics and economics."

"What I found most special about OSS is that all the professors are graduates of Oxford, Cambridge, or other top UK universities. This was incredibly valuable, as we gained real insight into what education there is like. The programme offered interdisciplinary learning and multiple perspectives on subjects. My favourite part was the way tutors approached learning – for example, in the leadership session, we focused on discussion and debating, which I really enjoyed. Before OSS, I had limited exposure to Economics and was unsure about applying to UK universities. This two-week experience changed my perspective. I not only gained a better understanding of Economics, but also discovered what studying it at university would be like. After OSS, I am seriously considering UK universities as my future choice and would very likely pursue Economics as my major. If you are still thinking about joining OSS – what are you waiting for?"

"The astrophysics lectures were a highlight, covering black hole theories and mathematical models, along with biomedicine, where we explored molecular theory and how it connects to pharmacology. One of the keynote lectures that stood out was about mindset, how having a positive outlook affects behaviour and helps you work through different scenarios efficiently, it really helped with maintaining good emotional health. The program also opened up interest in more practical subjects, like civil engineering, and gave a real taste of interdisciplinary thinking. Coming in, one of us was focused on economics but ended up switching towards biomedicine after discovering a new interest here. Outside of lectures, playing table tennis in the common room was a favourite way to unwind. We'd definitely suggest giving this program a try, it opens up so many different academic perspectives."

"What I loved most about OSS was the combination of rigorous academic learning and cultural exchange. Small classes and expert tutors gave me a chance to explore subjects like International Criminal Law in depth, while meeting students from around the world broadened my perspective on different cultures and ideas. Beyond academics, the programme offers a supportive and inspiring environment, from social evenings to exploring Oxford itself. OSS gave me the confidence to consider future paths, helping me refine my interests and think about pursuing Law at a higher level. It’s a unique, once-in-a-lifetime experience that I would definitely recommend."

"I wasn't expecting the programme to be so educational and structured, but I was surprised by how much I learned and how much I genuinely enjoyed it. Mornings were full of classes, and afternoons were for trips — my favourite was the Fitzwilliam Museum, seeing Greek and Egyptian artifacts I'd studied in my lectures come to life in person. Sessions on ancient philosophy and freedom of speech stood out the most, and I hope to explore those topics further in the future. If I had to describe the experience in one word, it would be fulfilling — the people were lovely, the classes were amazing, and the trips were so much fun. If you're looking for a fun summer or a chance to make new friends, this is definitely the place to go."

"The most special part of OSS was interacting with students and tutors from all over the world. Academically, it was challenging and inspiring, letting me explore advanced topics in mathematics and beyond. The tutorials were especially valuable, offering insights from recent graduates about university life and how to apply what I learned. The programme also gave a fantastic social experience, from activities like karaoke night to connecting with students across streams. Talking to the academic advisor helped me shape my future plans, narrowing my focus to mechanical and aerospace engineering. OSS is the perfect way to experience university life, explore your interests, and make lasting connections – I would highly recommend it."

"It's eventful, mornings are for studying, but evenings are for fun with friends, supervisors, and sometimes tutors too. Staying at an amazing college, the one-on-one tutorial method, and meeting genuinely smart people from around the world have been the highlights. I loved learning from expert tutors from Cambridge, Oxford and King's, asking them about applying and what draws people to the field, covering everything from international relations to criminal and contract law. A keynote lecture on the future of warfare really stood out too, the speaker was so confident and inspiring. Evenings brought game nights, karaoke, and a weekend trip to Blenheim Palace, rich in history. I thought of a million things that could go wrong, but nothing did, you'll make close friends here in just two weeks."

"My first impression of Oxford was that it was huge and amazing. I really enjoyed the biochemistry classes, and one of the highlights of the medicine stream was the UCAT tutorial, where we learned about each section of the test and picked up lots of useful tips. My favourite part of OSS was the diversity of the students and how friendly everyone was. Outside of classes, I enjoyed spending time with friends in the Junior Common Room, playing pool, exploring the city and going to events like the pantomime, game nights and karaoke. I'd definitely recommend joining OSS because there's always something for everyone, and it's a lot of fun."

"The programme gave me an incredible mix of academic challenge and inspiration, with daily lectures covering a wide range of topics. My favourite sessions were Game Theory and Entrepreneurship, which really made me think critically and showed me practical steps toward starting my own business. Beyond the classroom, OSS offered a perfect balance of social and cultural experiences. I got to meet amazing people from all over the world and form friendships that will last. The programme has clarified my future path and given me confidence that my business ambitions are achievable. I’d definitely recommend OSS – it’s an enriching, fun, and unforgettable experience."

"Aside from meeting amazing people, like the tutors and friends, the keynote lectures were a real highlight, especially sustainability and the future of war, seeing experts talk so passionately about their subjects was really inspiring. Outside of lectures, we'd go to the mall, try the cafes nearby, or just sit and catch up before curfew. Writing essays and research projects was enjoyable, though the personal reflection side was a bit challenging, definitely more independent than school, closer to what university will actually be like. It's less guided, you have to ask your own questions, but that made it even more enjoyable. Honestly, what do you have to lose? You'll make amazing friends and memories here, we'd genuinely say just do it, you won't regret it."

"A favourite part was spending the day in Cambridge and going punting with everyone, along with subject days like vascular and trauma surgery and cancer therapies, which really confirmed an interest in medicine. The tutorials were a highlight too, one-on-one time with experts in the field made it easy to ask questions and dig deeper into specific topics. Extracurricular activities, like karaoke and dance nights, gave a great chance to bond with people outside our usual courses. Having a different tutor every day kept things fresh, everyone taught differently, so it never felt repetitive. We'd 100% recommend giving OSS a go, it's a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and we're genuinely sad to be heading home."

"I expected OSS to be academically intense, and it was — but I didn't expect it to be so socially valuable too. A lecture on organic and pharmaceutical chemistry stood out most, teaching me about drug development and how medicine keeps evolving. It deepened my passion for medicine and sparked a love for chemistry I never expected. These two weeks made me more open to new experiences, having met people from more countries than ever before, and more motivated to push myself academically. Join OSS — it's been the best experience of my life, and the fastest two weeks ever."

"My favourite part of the programme was learning from such experienced tutors. I especially enjoyed the Neuroscience session, which gave fascinating insights into how the brain works. The tutorials provided a deeper understanding of different subjects and offered a clear picture of what being a doctor involves. Outside the classroom, I loved the extracurricular activities and the trip to Cambridge with punting on the river – it was beautiful and so much fun. The programme really expanded my view of the different medical specialties and showed me the dedication required to succeed at university. I would definitely recommend OSS to anyone looking for an in-depth, inspiring, and fun experience."

"My name is Boris. I joined the Junior Programme in Stream A – Physics, Science, and Engineering. What I found most special about OSS was meeting so many new people and making great friends. The programme was really well-balanced – in the mornings, we had academic sessions and optional tutorials, and in the afternoons, we went on trips or worked on our final essay project. I especially loved the excursions – my favourite was visiting the Mini BMW plant, which was fascinating. My favourite subject was Mechanical Engineering, and thanks to the programme, I now have a much clearer idea of my future path. Before OSS, I was unsure whether to pursue Mechanical Engineering, Aeronautics, or Quantum Mechanics, but now I’m confident in my choice. I’d highly recommend OSS to anyone considering it – it’s been an amazing and eye-opening experience."

"OSS gave us the chance to experience university life before actually starting university. Studying a wide range of topics, attending tutorials and speaking with lecturers from Oxford and Cambridge helped us discover what we enjoy most and what we'd like to pursue in the future. We loved being able to meet students from all over the world, and the social side of the programme was just as memorable, from karaoke and casino night to our trip to Cambridge. For us, OSS confirmed that we're on the right path, and we'd definitely recommend it to anyone who's still deciding what they want to study."

"It's been enriching, every seminar, lecture and tutorial has given me so much new information, and it's helped me decide whether I really want to go to Oxbridge for uni. Sessions on topics I thought I knew well kept challenging what I thought I knew. The trip to Oxford was amazing, seeing colleges like Magdalen and New College, and punting in Cambridge let us see one of the most beautiful parts of the UK, rich in history you don't find back home. These two weeks gave me a much clearer sense of what I'm working towards, not just some abstract goal, but wanting this because it would be one of the greatest experiences of my life."

"Marvelous is the word I'd use — I met so many new people and learned so much in such a short time. I expected OSS to be really demanding, with no time for friends, but it was the perfect balance between learning and having fun — even our junior trips to the Whipple Museum, Oxford, and Anglesey Abbey let us explore while still learning. This experience changed how I think about my future — I used to feel uncertain about how I'd become a doctor, but now I know that just knowing I want to be one is enough for right now. It also helped me become calmer and less controlling, and to make real friendships without being so shy. You should come to OSS — everyone here, from the tutors to the staff, is so kind, and you will not regret it."

"What made OSS so special for us was the people. Meeting students from so many different countries and learning alongside them made the experience unlike anything else. The tutorials were a real highlight, giving us the opportunity to learn in small groups with tutors from world-class universities and ask questions tailored to our own interests. Whether it was exploring biology in greater depth or discovering new areas of mathematics, the programme strengthened our passion for the subjects we want to pursue at university. Visiting Cambridge was another unforgettable experience, giving us the chance to compare two world-class universities and experience student life from a new perspective. We'd definitely recommend OSS for its international community, inspiring academics and the connections you make along the way."

"It was frightening at first, honestly, but in a good way. I'd never lived on campus before, so meeting new people and new fields of study was a real stretch, but it helped me grow. A whole day with a professor covering complex numbers and quantum theory really stood out, it widened my view of maths and showed how interconnected different sciences actually are. The first two days were tough as an introvert in a new place, but I soon found people who think similarly to me, and ended up with a group of about eight people I could talk to for hours. Seeing how Cambridge actually works from the inside humanised it, it stopped being this black box of prestige. It's opened my eyes to how much it challenges you to think differently."

"All the memories shared with new friends here will always be treasured, karaoke night, punting, and one-on-one conversations with lecturers after seminars that I'll never forget. It's been unforgettable, meeting people from all over the world I wouldn't usually get to interact with, gaining so much knowledge and new experiences that will stay with me. It's also been immersive, a new topic every day but still getting properly immersed, coming away with a much broader understanding of how the world works, especially through hands-on activities. One standout was a lecture on freedom of expression that changed how I see rights and freedom. A pure maths lecture also surprised me, since I'm usually more physics and chemistry."

"The experience has been immersive, with engaging activities, interesting lectures and seminars, and talkative tutorials, we learned so much here. The behavioural economics lecture was a favourite for both of us, learning about nudge theory and how it influences the way we buy things. Evenings brought their own fun too, karaoke, singing and dancing. We both loved Cambridge, calm in the mornings but lively at night, though Oxford felt bigger, with more to do. These two weeks helped us grow more independent, we made lots of new friends and gained new experiences. Just give it a try, you'll never know if you'll enjoy something until you do it."

"My experience at OSS was fascinating; it taught me so much, not just inside the classroom but socially too. One of my favourite lectures was on language, mind, and cognition, something I never expected in a medicine stream, but it gave me a whole new perspective on the brain and on medicine itself. These two weeks taught me what small, intimate classrooms and lectures really feel like, and it's actually influenced me to apply to schools with that same style. More than anything, it shaped me to be more open, more social, and more confident speaking up about my own opinions. Just do it; you never know exactly what to expect, but it's all good, and you'll have the time of your life at OSS."

"It's been going really well, getting a lot of practical insights from professors who share their own experiences rather than just textbook material, things you could actually use to start a business or work in a firm. I'm really looking forward to the marketing part, as I'd potentially major in it, and also to the tour of Cambridge and punting this weekend, something I've never done before. Everyone I've met is like-minded but also really different, coming from all corners of the world, which gives such a great range of perspectives. I love the city itself, it's small and cosy compared to somewhere like London, with lovely restaurants nearby, and seeing the Bodleian Library yesterday was absolutely spectacular."

"The Civil Engineering seminars on the first day were incredibly insightful. I learned about new schools of thought, like Holistic Design, that I wouldn’t normally encounter without speaking to industry professionals. It really opened my mind and taught me to approach design from multiple perspectives beyond just functionality. If you’re worried about applying to OSS, don’t be. The academics and interview process may seem daunting, but it's definitely worth it. Living in Oxford for two weeks was an amazing experience, and for me, it turned out to be one of the best experiences of my life."

"I’m Elyse from the US, and I’m in Stream B, focused on medicine, biology, and chemistry. I really enjoyed the small, interactive lectures with knowledgeable tutors, which allowed me to dive deeply into complex topics in biology and chemistry. The programme also offered fascinating keynote lectures in areas like architecture, AI, and economics, giving a broader, interdisciplinary perspective. Beyond academics, I made friends from all over the world and explored the beautiful, historic cities of Oxford and Cambridge together. Curating my own research project let me apply what I learned across different subjects, making the experience both challenging and rewarding"

"This experience was truly life-changing, especially since before coming here I was set on studying economics and management, but while I was here I got to explore so many new subjects, like politics and philosophy, and realised I actually want to study PPE, so now I'm getting ready for that. I also met the three nicest girls in the world, we have such a tight connection, and I believe it's the kind of friendship that will last my whole life. One thing that's so unique here is the teaching, I'm so honoured to have been taught by such amazing teachers from schools like Oxford and Cambridge, it really changed my perspective on what uni will be like."

"I think I'm going to say transformative. I had a lot of fun meeting people from every continent in all my groups, talking about issues, some I was really familiar with, others completely new that I brought into my project, like connecting tech and systemic violence to a question about climate change. I got to sit in on some medical tutorials too, including one about excavating mass burials. I was surprised how collaborative and tight-knit the college is, everyone just trying to help each other and talk through issues. I loved all our trips, punting on the river, touring colleges in Oxford, visiting an abbey, but my favourite was just walking around Cambridge with new people, trying the food."

"Participating in Stream A was an amazing experience. The academic sessions were rigorous, but I also had the chance to meet wonderful tutors and classmates, which made the programme both challenging and enjoyable. Exploring Oxford and its colleges added a unique dimension to the experience. OSS helped me reflect on my future and gave me insights that will guide my next steps academically and personally."

"OSS goes a lot deeper into specific topics than I expected, especially with the calibre of the teachers and professors. If I had to describe the programme in one word, it would be endurance — it demands real focus and attention, but it's genuinely enjoyable too. I came in already interested in law and philosophy, and I leave with a far deeper understanding — confident that whatever career I choose, this knowledge will serve me well. OSS has a real ability to teach efficiently, even in a short amount of time. You will learn far more deeply here than you would in school or on your own."

"The tutors and students made OSS a truly welcoming and revitalising experience, with expert teaching that brought subjects like International Relations to life through engaging discussions on global power and politics. The small-group tutorials and seminars gave me a real taste of how PPE and Law-style subjects are studied at top UK universities. Beyond the classroom, OSS helped me understand what studying in the UK is really like — from the college system to trips to Cambridge and Oxford. One-to-one guidance with an academic advisor also gave me clarity on my university plans and applications. Overall, the mix of strong academics, supportive people, and inspiring surroundings made this an experience I would absolutely recommend."

"The programme is demanding, but in the best possible way. It makes you want to engage, ask questions and learn as much as you can, and that's the same attitude you find in the other students. The lectures are incredibly engaging because the tutors encourage discussion and give everyone the opportunity to express their ideas, which is very different from my experience at school. I always leave each lecture wanting to learn even more. OSS has also made the university application process much clearer. The admissions sessions explained the entrance tests in great detail, and that's something that's very difficult to find back home in Canada. I now have a much better understanding of what I'll need to do to apply for biomedical engineering."

"The program has been really beneficial, giving me an amazing undergraduate experience. Being able to connect with such a diverse group and experience the workload, how much needs to be done, and how to manage your time has been great. It's interesting meeting people from different cultures and blending in with them. They've also covered things like the application process and the fundamentals required, giving me a lot more understanding of how to deal with it, so I feel ready and capable of actually studying here. Oxford itself is a lovely city, full of historical monuments and buildings, you're able to learn so much about its past."

"It's been exciting, meeting so many new people and getting excited about what I want to study at university. Learning some of what I'll cover in uni made me look forward to it even more, and everyone was so kind it never felt like a big challenge. My favourite lesson was looking at conflict and how to resolve it, since that's the career path I want to pursue, it was fascinating seeing the case studies, especially with my own family's Northern Irish background. Cambridge is a beautiful city, the architecture during punting was amazing. This program didn't change my core values, but it solidified what I want to study and where I want to apply. Just go for it, you won't regret it, it's an amazing opportunity and you might make friends for life."

"My name is HC, I’m 15. My main interests are Physics, Maths, and Science, so being able to study at one of the top universities in the world was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. I especially enjoyed the one-on-one tutorials, which allowed me to learn directly from tutors with PhDs and really absorb the material. The trips were also amazing, especially the visit to Cambridge – punting there was an unforgettable experience! After the programme, I now have a much clearer idea of my career path and have discovered new interests along the way. If you want an experience that combines top-level academics with the freedom to explore and learn, I’d definitely recommend OSS."

"It's a little slice of college life, something you won't get anywhere else. The timetable seemed intimidating at first, but there's real time to make genuine connections and just be yourself. People here are so open to conversation and curiosity; I've had some of my most memorable moments in completely unplanned chats. These two weeks gave me real clarity on what I want to do in STEM. If you're thinking of applying, don't be scared; it really is not that bad, and everyone comes with such a curious, open approach."

"My OSS experience was amazing — it changed so much about my perspective on law, international relations, and university as a whole. My first seminar, on Socrates and the Republic, taught me the real importance of asking the right questions. Watching The Tempest performed live in a Cambridge college garden was unforgettable, and exploring the town itself — its architecture, its warmth, its social energy — made me fall in love with Cambridge. But the biggest change was in why I want to go to university at all. I used to see it as just the expected next step; now I genuinely want to learn more about the subjects I love, thanks to OSS. I was nervous at first about making friends, but that faded so quickly — everyone is wonderful, and it's an experience you will not regret."

"When I arrived at OSS, I was unsure about my future and whether studying abroad was really for me. Now I’m leaving 100% sure that I want to study chemistry, become a professor, and follow my path abroad. The academic experience gave me a clearer idea of what I want to do, and seeing my tutors teach with such passion inspired me to think about the kind of professor I want to become. But OSS changed much more than my plans for the future. I met amazing people from different cultures, made friends I hope to see again, and discovered a place where I could truly be myself. I’m so grateful for these two weeks and everything they gave me. OSS changed everything I once thought I knew about myself."

"One of the most interesting things I learned in Stream B was how plastic surgery connects with dentistry through maxillofacial surgery, which showed me how closely different medical fields work together. The programme prepared me well for the academic pressure of university and gave me a clearer picture of what studying Medicine at places like Oxford or Cambridge could be like. Beyond academics, OSS helped me build confidence, improve my communication skills, and make meaningful friendships with students from around the world. It truly felt like a real university experience and made me feel more prepared and motivated for the future."

"The tutorials and lectures with top UK tutors were the highlight for me – they showed me what higher-level study really looks like and let me explore ideas in depth. Through open discussions and personal questions in tutorials, I gained a much clearer understanding of my interests and the subjects I’m passionate about. Beyond academics, the support and community at OSS made the experience truly special. The supervisors were incredibly kind and approachable, and through trips, games, and everyday moments, we really connected. I felt supported, encouraged to step out of my comfort zone, and genuinely cared for – which is why I would definitely recommend this programme to everyone."

"One of my favourite parts of OSS was exploring Oxford during the breaks. The city is beautiful, and I really love the architecture. The academic curriculum has been very comprehensive, and I've learned so much from it. One of the highlights was meeting dentists, orthopaedic surgeons and cardiologists, who gave me valuable insights into studying medicine in the UK and future career opportunities. I'd definitely recommend joining OSS. It's a great experience, and you get to meet so many fantastic people."

"My favourite part of the programme was meeting new people and having conversations with the lecturers. I especially enjoyed studying epidemiology and public health because they gave me a broader perspective on medicine. Exploring Oxford and spending time with other students made the experience even more memorable. OSS has definitely opened my mind to studying medicine in the UK and helped me think about which areas of medicine I'd like to pursue. I'd definitely recommend it to anyone considering joining."

"My name is Kevin, I’m 15, and I joined Stream C, focused on Economics. What I loved about OSS is how authentic it felt – it truly reflects what university life at Oxford or Cambridge is like. You don’t just learn academic content, you also get a real taste of boarding life, which isn’t something many schools in Asia can offer. The work-life balance was great too – we spent part of the day in seminars and tutorials, and the rest exploring Oxford or going on trips. The tutorials covered a wide range of topics beyond just Economics, including Management, Business, and even Business Psychology, which gave me a broader perspective. Before coming here, I already thought about studying in the UK, but after this experience, I’m even more certain this is where I want to be. OSS gave me the confidence and clarity I needed – if you’re thinking about it, just go for it!"

"The most special part of OSS was the diversity of the people I met. I wouldn't have met them anywhere else, and learning alongside students from around the world really enriched my academic experience. I especially enjoyed exploring the psychological side of economics, including game theory, which was something I hadn't been exposed to at school. If you're thinking about joining OSS, I'd definitely say go for it. It's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that gives you a real insight into university life and the environment you'll experience in the future."

"I joined for multiple reasons, one being to help me understand the process from sixth form to university to junior doctor, and through the medicine stream I got a lot of useful information on that path. I also wanted to experience life outside the Middle East, and it was a blast. We went to Oxford, where I got to visit multiple museums and see some really cool paintings. It gave me a real taste of what studying medicine here could be like. I really do believe that if you want a good time, you should join."

"OSS feels like a combination of boarding school and university. You have the same sense of responsibility as boarding school, but you learn in a university-style environment. Before coming here, I was mainly interested in finance, but the programme really broadened my horizons. Subjects like entrepreneurship were completely new to me, and they've inspired me to explore them further. I also really enjoyed the keynote lectures because they challenged the way I think about important issues and introduced me to new perspectives. Outside of classes, I made great friends and loved the evening activities, especially casino night. I'd definitely recommend OSS to anyone who's looking for an academic challenge and wants to experience university life."

"OSS gives you such variety each day — different lessons no matter what course you're doing, plus keynote lectures that bring all streams together. In Stream A, I especially loved the math and science sessions. What surprised me most is how OSS made complex topics feel achievable. Quantum physics used to sound incredibly complicated, but when you actually get to learn about it here, it doesn't seem that out of reach anymore. I feel so much more capable and confident about university now."

"I came to the program with the idea that I wanted to study PPE at university, and attending the seminars and lectures confirmed this. I found the politics and philosophy lectures especially interesting, as they're something I didn't have the chance to study in school. It's great having deep discussions with like-minded people on these topics, it leads to a lot of informed opinions and arguments I wouldn't have thought of otherwise. One thing I really valued is how international the program is, with almost everyone coming from a different country, which makes the discussions even more fruitful, since everyone brings different life backgrounds and cultures."

"My two weeks at OSS gave me a clearer idea of what I want to do and made my dream of studying law feel much more reachable. The lectures on freedom of expression and constitutional law gave me a real insight into how law is studied at university level, while the experience of being in Cambridge made it feel more real. At the same time, OSS showed me that you can work hard, do well academically, and still have fun. I made incredible friends from around the world, discovered different cultures, and created memories outside the classroom, from punting on the river to karaoke nights. It taught me how to balance ambition with enjoying the experience — and showed me that no dreams are impossible."

"What made my OSS experience truly special was meeting so many amazing people from all over the world. Everyone came from different backgrounds and cultures, which made every interaction interesting and fun. The classes were equally incredible – every day we had different tutors who brought their own expertise and unique teaching styles. I especially enjoyed Pure Maths and Engineering. OSS also helped me figure out my future path – after this experience, I’m more focused on pursuing Engineering and even have a clearer idea of which field I want to specialise in."

"The most special part of my OSS experience was meeting students from all over the world and learning alongside people with different perspectives and learning styles. I really enjoyed being part of a stream focused on subjects I genuinely care about, and politics quickly became my favourite part of the PPE course. I also loved visiting Blenheim Palace, comparing Oxford and Cambridge, and spending time with everyone during activities like Mafia and karaoke. OSS helped me realise that I want to continue studying law and PPE, with a particular interest in politics. If you're thinking about joining but feel nervous, I'd definitely say take the chance. I arrived not knowing anyone, and it turned out to be an amazing experience."

"What I really love about this program is that you meet people from all over the world, and your experience broadens when you get to see how other people think and view aspects you hadn't even considered before. It's definitely made me change my mind on what I want to learn in the future and really influenced how I want to pursue my academics from now on. Before I came here, I was really into marketing, just marketing in general, but now that I've been through all the lectures, I want to get more into philosophy and human behaviour, anything in that regard, I just know that's what I want to learn."

"I've really enjoyed the program so far. My favourites have been the lectures on criminal law and finance. I find it easy to get involved in discussions when I'm interested in the topic, even if the whole topic isn't really my thing, there's usually some part of it that grabs my attention. I personally find that the tutors are really good at involving everyone in class. Most lectures end with an activity that brings in the majority of the class, if not everyone, giving each person a chance to speak and share their opinions and thoughts on the topic. I love Oxford, I could definitely see myself here in a couple of years' time. Studying here would be amazing."

"Unique is the word I'd use — I learned about myself, the content, and how to connect with others, all in ways I'd never experienced before. I was scared of the essay, but tutors, friends, and seniors supported me every step of the way. Punting was a first for me and showed me a whole new side of Cambridge — a city far bigger and prettier than I expected, full of warm, welcoming people. What I'll miss most is the people — I made so many friendships and felt comfortable with everyone. If you're trying to understand yourself and your future, OSS is the best thing for you. It's genuinely one of the best choices I've ever made."

"Magical is the word I'd use — we learned so much about economics, business, and management, basically the entire overview of the field. Behavioural economics stood out most, working through real case studies and applying techniques like framing to real-life situations. The Sedgwick Museum was a personal highlight, thanks to its dinosaur fossils and ancient mineral rocks. These two weeks gave me real clarity — I now understand economics as a whole, and it's shaped my decision to pursue economics or business at university. Just join Oxbridge Summer Scholars — the learning opportunities, the evening activities, the whole experience, it's simply really nice."

"A seminar on how cancer develops and can be treated touched me deeply — my mother was treated with immunotherapy, and the lecturer was an immunotherapist himself. Hearing him explain it gave me a personal window into how medicine really works. I was finally in the environment I'd always dreamed of — learning with incredible professors, making friends from around the world, and living out something I'd imagined for years. Karaoke night, glitter and all, is a memory I'll never forget. My advice to anyone considering OSS: just go. I don't regret a single moment."

"The programme is small and intensive, which makes it really engaging. Every day we explored a different topic, from physics to astrophysics, and the variety kept it exciting. I especially loved astrophysics, learning about theories on how the universe began, and the keynote lectures opened up perspectives I hadn’t imagined before. Being in Oxford makes it even more inspiring – you can’t help but study here because the atmosphere just sets the perfect mood for learning. The international environment was amazing. Meeting students from different countries, sharing experiences, and living in Oxford made the programme unforgettable. It also helped me clarify my future path: I’m now leaning toward physics and astrophysics. OSS is truly special, and I’d recommend it to anyone seeking a unique academic and cultural experience."

"The most special part of OSS was meeting people from all over the world and learning together at a university level. My favourite sessions were on Leadership, which were interactive and included debates, and the tutorials were really helpful for asking detailed questions directly to the tutors. Beyond academics, OSS was full of fun activities like casino night and exploring the palace with friends. The programme helped me clarify my future studies, showing me I’m more interested in the mathematical side of economics. I’d definitely recommend OSS – it’s a unique experience that combines learning, friendships, and inspiration for your future."

"When I joined the programme, I wasn’t sure what to expect since I’d never done an academic summer school before. It turned out to be the perfect mix of learning and fun – I got to explore subjects I’m passionate about while also enjoying great experiences with friends. My favourite part was definitely Astrophysics, especially learning about Black Holes and the science behind them. The tutors were incredibly open and passionate, always happy to go beyond the slides and share their insights. Now I’m almost certain I’ll pursue Physics at university, possibly in the UK."

"This program was really interesting and I learned a lot from the seminars, keynote lectures and tutorials. The tutorials involved a professor and a few other students having conversations and debates, which was really fun. As someone who wants to study astrophysics at university, it was great getting a taste of that kind of academic discussion. On the weekend we went to Cambridge and also explored around Oxford, seeing so much of both cities. I would really recommend this program, as I learned a lot from it and got a real sense of what studying here would be like."

"I came to OSS wanting to go deeper into astrophysics, and a seminar on space junk gave me exactly that. As a junior, the experience was less demanding than for seniors, but just as enlightening — a visit to the Whipple Museum let me explore astronomical instruments up close, and punting down the river taught me so much about Cambridge's history. These two weeks built my determination, my teamwork, and my ability to connect ideas I'd never linked together before. You leave feeling so much more confident, with new friends and two unforgettable weeks behind you."

"Hi, I’m Miho, I’m 15, and I joined Stream B (Medicine). What made OSS so special for me was meeting people from all over the world who share similar interests. It was really inspiring to learn new things every day, explore beautiful places, and experience life at Oxford. Our weekend trip to Cambridge was one of my highlights, and it helped me compare both Oxford and Cambridge as future study options. Before coming here, I saw Oxford as something distant and almost unreachable, but living and studying here made it feel closer and more possible. I came in mainly interested in Chemistry, but through this programme, I discovered how closely it connects to Medicine and real-world applications. OSS truly opened new paths for me – it’s an amazing opportunity to challenge yourself, make new friends, and get inspired."

"What I particularly enjoyed about the course was the system of tutorials, where we could engage more deeply with a topic we were interested in, in a small group with more direct engagement with the tutor. The tutorial on feminist literature stood out for me, I loved exploring the concept, how it was formed, and the impact it had on society at the time. My favourite lesson ended up being philosophy, where my class explored morality and stoicism, debating the concept with our tutor and building towards a shared understanding of it. On weekends, I really enjoyed going out with the friends I made, exploring the different cultural aspects of Oxford together."

"I really enjoyed the Astrophysics sessions – the teacher explained complex concepts in a way that was easy to understand, and the classes were truly mind-blowing. The tutorials were also great, as they allowed us to get to know the tutors personally, hear their interesting life stories, and get valuable advice on applying to Oxford and Cambridge. The programme also opened my eyes to subjects I hadn’t considered deeply before. It even made me rethink my future career path – I was considering Mechanical Engineering, but now I’m leaning more toward Aeronautical Engineering. Beyond academics, I loved meeting students from all over the world and making new friends – it was an amazing experience."

"One of the best parts of OSS was learning from different tutors, each bringing their own perspective and introducing us to topics we had never studied before. The tutorials were especially valuable because the small groups gave us the chance to ask questions about the subjects, university applications and the tutors' own experiences. We also loved meeting students from so many different countries and quickly building friendships that made the programme even more memorable. Studying economics, business and marketing gave us a much clearer understanding of these subjects and confirmed that this is the direction we want to pursue at university. We'd definitely recommend OSS. It's a truly international experience, you'll learn so much, make incredible friends, and two weeks will feel far too short."

"The programme’s wide range of tutors and perspectives really broadened my understanding, helping me think more deeply about complex subjects and explore potential career paths. The lectures and keynotes gave a real sense of what studying at a top university is like and inspired me to consider future postgraduate study in the UK. Beyond academics, the programme offers a strong sense of community. The tutors, staff, and fellow students make you feel welcome, while exploring Oxford’s historic city adds to the experience. It’s a unique opportunity to challenge yourself, expand your knowledge, and experience life at a prestigious university – you’ll feel supported and inspired every step of the way."

"What I loved most about OSS was the combination of academic challenge and freedom – the small classes let you interact closely with tutors, while the city and evenings gave time to explore and socialize. The programme is enlightening, helping me realise that I want to pursue economics more seriously in the future. Beyond studying, OSS gave me the chance to meet people from all over the world, exchange experiences, and even make friends I’ll stay in touch with back home. It’s a unique way to explore your interests, gain confidence in your future path, and enjoy a truly global community."

"I really enjoyed the medicine subject because I want to study medicine in the future, and it was helpful to see what studying medicine at university is really like. I especially enjoyed learning about the hallmarks of cancer and how different tumours work. In my free time, I loved walking around Oxford, exploring the city and spending time with everyone. The most special part of OSS was meeting people from so many different countries and making friendships and memories together. I'd definitely recommend giving it a go. It's great fun, you learn a lot, meet people from all over the world and leave with friendships and memories that last."

"Academically, I especially enjoyed the sessions on cardiology and trauma, which expanded on what I had learned in lectures and gave practical insights relevant to UK medical exams. The programme really helped me clarify my future path in medicine and reinforced that this is exactly what I want to pursue. The most special part of OSS for me was meeting people from all over the world – sharing different cultures and perspectives made the experience unforgettable. Beyond academics, the programme offered a perfect balance of social activities, from exploring Oxford and Cambridge to fun evenings with karaoke and Just Dance. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a unique mix of learning, personal growth, and cultural experience."

"Oxford made a great first impression on me. When I first walked in, I felt like I was in Harry Potter because every building looks like a castle, and it was incredible to be surrounded by such historic colleges. My favourite part of OSS was the tutorials, where we learned in small groups with top-quality experts in their fields. I also loved our day trip to Cambridge, exploring the colleges and spending time with everyone. If you want to know what life at Oxford could be like one day, you should definitely consider joining OSS. It's a great experience. You learn so much, meet lots of new people and live in an amazing place."

"What felt most special was the chance to meet people from all over the world and speak with tutors who work at real universities and graduated from Oxford or Cambridge. My favourite parts were the interesting classes with different tutors, along with dancing, I really enjoyed Just Dance. My favourite subjects were leadership and marketing. I really enjoyed the trip to Cambridge, comparing it with Oxford and spotting the differences, the buildings are beautiful, and walking across the city and punting on the river made it a lovely trip. The tutorials were really useful too, giving a chance to build closer relationships with speakers and talk more deeply about the subject. The program helped me understand that I do want to study in the UK, and which subjects interest me most."

"My OSS experience was incredible. Academically, it's wonderful — lessons with college professors and specialists in their field. Socially, I made friends from countries I never expected to connect with, some of them friends for life. A trip to the Fitzwilliam Museum let me see artworks I'd studied back home in Brazil in real life, and karaoke night gave me memories I'll never forget. I thought college was just going to be academics, academics, academics — but it's actually a real social life too. If you're thinking about joining OSS, just do it. Don't be scared of being alone — you'll meet so many new people and learn things you'd never expect."

"If I had to describe my OSS experience in one word, it would be improvement. The programme gave me a much stronger background in economics and helped me feel more confident about what I want to study at university and what I enjoy most about the subject. One of the highlights of Oxford was visiting the Bodleian Library. It's a place full of history, culture and knowledge, and it really captures the spirit of studying at Oxford. I'd definitely recommend OSS because it gives you more confidence, a stronger academic foundation and an experience that helps you make decisions about your future."

"Hi, my name is Richard. I joined the Junior Programme in Stream C, focusing on Economics, Business, and Management. This has been an absolutely unique experience for me – my first time abroad alone and taking part in such a programme. My favourite parts were the afternoon trips, especially the visit to Cambridge and the BMW factory. But I also really enjoyed studying Economics and Entrepreneurship, especially since both my parents are entrepreneurs. This experience has helped me realise that I’d like to major in Economics or Entrepreneurship in the future. I’d definitely recommend OSS to anyone who wants to explore life at Oxford and Cambridge – it’s an amazing adventure that helps you grow academically and personally."

"OSS gave us a real taste of what studying at Oxford is like. Learning through lectures and small-group tutorials with handpicked tutors meant we could explore subjects in much greater depth than at school and ask questions in a much more interactive environment. The programme helped us discover new academic interests while confirming the paths we want to pursue in the future. Outside the classroom, we loved exploring Oxford, getting to know everyone and taking part in activities like poker night and the murder mystery evening. If you're wondering whether to join OSS, we'd definitely say take the plunge. We had so much fun, learned so much, and it's one of the best experiences we've ever had."

"The most surprising thing was the tutorials, small groups of three or four with a tutor, giving real freedom to ask whatever you wanted and be guided by someone with huge depth of knowledge. The lecture on complex numbers, questioning how they relate to physics through linear algebra, was so engaging it made me forget my phone and everything else, and it's what I chose for my project. The project, a 2,000-word essay, was challenging but rewarding, since you pick your own angle rather than a set prompt. In free time, the most fun memory was buying a football, then hanging out with a bunch of locals and friends, a great way to get a feel for Cambridge as a town. These two weeks made me a lot more independent, both academically and in everyday life."

"So far the course has been really good, the best part is the exposure you get, meeting people from all around the world and building connections from a young age. I really enjoyed the classes on management and entrepreneurship, as well as economics. This is my first year in Oxford and I love it, seeing the museums and the library in person after only seeing them in pictures was unbelievable, and the people here are genuinely lovely and smart. My friends from the course have been so helpful, from helping me settle in on the first day to accompanying me whenever I wanted to go out, I've really enjoyed the memories we've made together. I'd recommend it to anyone who wants a taste of university life in the UK, especially if you're an extrovert who loves meeting new people."

"My experience has been pretty great, I've met a lot of people and the teachers are really nice. I loved the class where we literally built a bridge out of sticks, that was really interesting, and there was also a class where we projected our own company and finances, which was also great. Some classes were harder since I'm one of the younger ones, but the teachers do a lot of work to make things accessible, and they give pre-reading if you need it. Outside of lessons I usually study in my room or go out with friends, exploring Oxford and the shops. Overall this is a really good place to be, I'd recommend it to literally everyone."

"Discovery is the word I'd use to describe my OSS Junior experience — I discovered so much about myself, about a campus I love, and about a subject I really enjoy. Lessons went far beyond simply being told things; we were thinking critically through every single one. As part of the Junior programme, we got to learn alongside senior students, drawing on their guidance and direction as well as the expertise of our tutors. Visiting the Whipple Museum was a highlight, with guided tours and worksheets that made us really engage with what we were seeing. The evening activities — karaoke, casino night — were where I made most of my closest friends, through real conversation rather than a classroom setting. These two weeks solidified my desire to become a doctor and gave me a much deeper understanding of what that actually means. If you want to make friends in a diverse setting and learn about one of the best universities in the world, Oxbridge Summer Scholars is the way to go."

"The tutors are all experts from different areas, specialised in their specific topics, and we're able to bring together all their talent and knowledge and enjoy our fruitful life at OSS. Meeting different classmates from all over the world was fantastic, everyone was very nice, and besides the daytime lessons there were social events in the evenings that helped us get along well. My favourite part was the lessons, all very engaging and interactive, especially the problem-solving tutorials in a small class mode, where we could interact with tutors more and ask about things we weren't familiar with. The program inspired my future career too, a tutorial diving into dentistry confirmed I'm really suited to it."

"OSS gave me so much more than academic knowledge. The classes were a completely different way of learning, where we could discuss, debate, and hear different perspectives. I especially loved Freedom of Expression because I was able to share my opinions and learn more about my rights and how my voice is valued in society. But I learned just as much from the people I met. I made friends from different countries, discovered new cultures, and realised that even people from completely different backgrounds can connect. OSS also made my dream of studying in England feel more achievable and showed me how much is possible when you step outside your own bubble."

"My favourite part of OSS was the people – I met students from all over the world, which made the experience unforgettable. Academically, the tutorials, sessions, and keynote lectures allowed me to explore topics I had never encountered before and helped me clarify my future path in medicine and science. I especially loved the studies, from Chemistry to Biomedicine and Biochemistry, and the one-on-one tutorials were incredibly useful for asking questions about exams, careers, and UK university applications. OSS gave me a deeper understanding of medicine beyond the hospital, showing me research and diverse career paths, while also letting me form friendships and connections across cultures. I would definitely recommend this programme to anyone wanting to dive deeply into science while enjoying a supportive and global community."

"OSS gave me the opportunity to experience what studying at university is really like. The lectures and tutorials were very different from high school, and discussing ideas with the tutors made the experience even more valuable. Before coming to OSS, I was already interested in sociology and global studies, but the programme gave me new perspectives and confirmed that sociology is what I'd like to study at university. One of my favourite memories was game night, where I got to know other students while playing poker and having lots of fun together. I'd definitely recommend OSS because you can explore so many different subjects in just two weeks, meet inspiring tutors and experience life in Oxford while discovering what you truly want to study."

"OSS gave me a completely new experience and a real insight into what university life is like before starting my degree. Stepping outside my comfort zone and trying subjects like law, philosophy and medicine helped me discover interests I didn't know I had. My favourite classes were psychology, especially topics like depression, anxiety disorders and PTSD. Outside of lessons, I loved exploring Oxford and learning about its history with friends. I'd definitely recommend OSS to anyone who wants to get a better idea of university life, explore different subjects and meet people from all over the world."

"If I had to describe my OSS experience in one word, it would be invigorating. It was exciting to meet new people, discover Oxford and experience university life firsthand. One of my favourite parts of the programme was visiting Blenheim Palace and Cambridge, which gave us the chance to experience even more of the UK and its culture. Oxford lived up to its reputation, and the experience confirmed my passion for studying law while helping me understand more clearly what I want to pursue at university. If you're hesitating about joining OSS, I'd definitely say give it a go. You have nothing to lose, you'll learn so much and experience far more than you expect."

"What made OSS so special for us was the balance between academics and student life. The combination of keynote lectures, small-group tutorials and evening activities gave us a real introduction to what university in the UK is like. We loved discussing different ideas with students from all over the world and exploring areas of law we hadn't studied before, from international relations to criminal law. The programme helped us understand more clearly which path we'd like to pursue at university. One of our favourite memories was visiting Cambridge, but some of the best moments were simply spending time together on campus, grabbing coffee and talking between classes. If you're considering OSS, we'd definitely recommend taking the chance. Everyone is so welcoming, and it's an inspiring way to experience university life before you apply."

"My favourite part of OSS has been meeting people from different cultures because everyone brings new ideas and perspectives, especially during our economics classes. I really enjoy the atmosphere in Oxford. It has a true university feel, the architecture is beautiful, and the city is full of people from all over the world. I'd definitely recommend OSS to anyone who wants to expand their knowledge and gain a broader perspective on how the world works."

"The experience has been curious and a bit wacky, a mix of serious learning and plenty of time to socialise and make friendships that will last. Working with lecturers gave a chance to hear perspectives from people across different medical fields, one tutorial on trauma had us building a patient case study together. The trip to Oxford was stunning, and Anglesey Abbey offered a completely different kind of beauty. Working independently on a project, without reminders or deadlines set by someone else, felt like a real taste of university life and really built confidence. These two weeks opened up new aspects of medicine neither of us had considered before. If a friend was considering OSS, the answer would be simple: just do it."

"If I had to describe my OSS experience in one word, it would be knowledge. One of the most special parts of the programme was learning from the tutors, who were always happy to answer questions and share their expertise. I explored subjects including medicine, biology, cardiology, gastroenterology and dentistry, and learned so much about topics I had never studied before. The tutorials were especially valuable because the small groups meant we could ask detailed questions and receive personalised guidance. OSS confirmed that I want to study dentistry in the future, and I'd definitely recommend the programme. You'll improve your English, make friends from around the world and gain a much better understanding of the subjects you want to study at university."

"The most special aspect of OSS was learning from professors who are actively teaching at top universities. Their guidance on subjects like Concurrent Programming and admissions gave me both practical skills and insight into university life. The programme helped me narrow down my academic interests to Aero Engineering and Computer Science while providing perspective on other options like Astrophysics. OSS was invaluable in shaping my future choices and preparing me for higher education."

"I think the program is really great and I really enjoy the seminars. It gives a little uni feeling, like you get to experience uni life a bit, living in a dorm, sharing amenities, being without your parents, so it's like a support system. Oxford is a really interesting city, old-fashioned but also modern, and there's always something new to explore. I would really love to attend Oxford as a university. I love the teaching style here in the UK, the lectures are engaging, and teachers have a really open style. You can always ask questions. They encourage students to participate, and everybody communicates, debating answers or exploring new ideas together. It gave me a really nice insight into Oxford, especially at St Peter's College, where we live."

"What surprised me most is that we have so many people from different places, and everyone is still kind to each other, we could really connect. The lecture I found most interesting was about AI ethics, discussing how AI is made and how it can be influenced by human opinions. It really helped with my English as well as my STEM knowledge, letting me learn more about maths and physics, and it helped me see what I want to do with my future. I think this is really going to help me figure out my path going forward. Just do it, you won't be upset, it's going to be a perfect experience for you."
