How and why did you decide which subjects to study?
A teacher at my previous school encouraged me to study Philosophy and I liked the look of Sociology as it covered topics I was interested in. Classics appealed to me partly because I love Indiana Jones and I’m interested in the time period.
How did you find the move from school to College?
I settled in more easily than I thought I was going to. The subjects are a lot more intense than school, but it’s easier to ask for help and make friends, as everyone is in the same boat and wants to be here.
What have you enjoyed most about your courses?
The trip to Sorrento to visit Pompeii and Herculaneum was a highlight of the two years.
What do you like most about studying at College?
The flexibility of the teachers and the actual studying! During the year teachers are more than happy to go over things you didn’t understand, before moving onto the next thing.
What are your plans for the future?
I’m going to Kent University to study Classical Studies and hopefully go on to work in the field of Classics.
