this honestly made me feel so much better about uni, im year 12 but i've been around to look at unis and have felt really scared by the whole thing but knowing that you and probably else was feeling that way about uni makes me feel better about going bc everyone's going to be in the same boat, good luck with second year!!

I'M a chinese uni sophomore student and ready to get my master degree in UK. I might give you some information or advice from the aspect of chinese uni life. And i wish I could make friend with you
Also freshers week was definitely NOT my best week of my life, I am not into heavy drinking or clubbing at all and I just hated the expectation for students to do this. However, I am starting to enjoy it a bit more and do daytime activities x
I am in love with your calm voice😍
"You have to know aswell that visiting your friends and family is always an option. It's not impossible." I literally live in Hong Kong and am going to Uni Of York. My whole family lives in HK :C
The amount of productivity that you maintain despite of all the stress is just wow. you really deserve commendation. Amazing you are

This is really helpful! I'm starting at Edinburgh uni in September and I was feeling a bit stressed but this has really eased my anxiety. 😊
I finished my first year in 2006 (17 years ago, omg!). In 2018, I graduated from the university with a PhD degree. Good luck with your studies! Greetings to the UK!
Edinburgh is one of my top chouces and finding your channel was an amazing occurance.

As someone who has just finished second year in mechanical engineering (University of Galway), I would say that doing consistent but not excessive (or crammed) Study is the key to academic success. Make sure to look over the lecture notes/material after EVERY lecture - it saves a lot of time and makes sure that you’ve learned the material. You could also look up techniques such as active recall or spaced repetition to further improve the efficiency of your study time. With regards to settling in - there’s no need to be nervous or to plan everything down to the minutiae, since everyone is in the same boat and circumstances rarely go exactly as planned. Enjoy your time and good luck!

@@lordsauron4556 Do you think TCD, UCD, UCC or DCU are better? Why'd you pick NUG over alternatives and how's your experience so far? My biggest question is how's the cost of living, tuition and accommodation since Dublin clearly has major issues in that regard. Also did you get any scholarships? Any reply would be appreciated, thanks.
Thank you for all of the inspirational videos Emma! I'm currently in Year 11 and my third week of GCSE's start tommorrow. Thanks to all of your content I've been able to stay focused and try my hardest, so thank you!!

ngl one of my flatmates was horrid he would never clean the kitchen after he cooks, never washes up, smokes w££d in his room so the corridors would stink. we had a groupchat and we would all tell him to clean up but he always ignored us, he would steal people's food, ingriendients, cutlery and so much more worse stuff ugh im so happy to be done with 1st year and living with him

was it hard to get into your university?
Hey for accommodation at Edinburgh, is it for the full academic year or just during term times? Like, would you be kicked out at the end of each term?
Did you gave any entrance test to get into the University!
Anyone here thinking of commuting to Edinburgh, or have done before? Any advice would be appreciated!
I love your videos

Not sure what i'm going to do for freshers since my local nightclub to my uni has closed down 🥲 Luckily my Uni is only an hour away from Home so i can go home if i want to 🥰 My worry isn't going out clubbing its afterwards when i crave takeaways which is where my money ends up going 😂
