Why did you choose Reigate College?


The College has a strong reputation for high-quality teaching and excellent student support. Friends who’d studied at the College spoke very positively about their experiences, which gave me confidence in my decision, plus it’s a very convenient train ride!

How and why did you decide which subjects to study?


I selected my subjects based on my interests and previous studies. I enjoyed PE at GCSE, so continuing with it at A Level felt like a natural choice. My interest in Psychology grew from my PE studies, and I wanted to explore this further. Initially, I chose Law as a filler subject, but it quickly became one of my favourites!

Tell us about your EPQ

I completed an EPQ titled “The Benefits of Psychology on Sporting Performance”, which allowed me to combine my interests in PE and Psychology. This project helped me develop research and presentation skills that have been invaluable across my A Levels.

What are your plans for after College?

After College, I plan to take a gap year before studying Sports Science at university, with the aim of building a career in the sports industry.
