Hello There,
I am currently in the process of applying to study an Access Course in Business Studies and at the same time, I am also studying an AS and A Level in Mathematics.
My main objective is to attend university as an Undergraduate and then to study Economics.
I have a keen interest in Economics and I am very enthusiatic in the subject, which in turn was the key catalyst in my decision to further my education and gain a degree in the subject.
I am hopeful of attending Universities such as Cambridge and Oxford, which I know may sound very ambitious and a bit farfetched, however, I believe my drive, commitment and hard work will show if I get the chance at an interview.
When it comes to an application, which will be October 2012, I will be very much so underway studying a Full A level in Maths and also the relevant Access Course to Economics, which I am capable of acheiving top grades in (hopefully)
Here is a list of my previous employment which in my opinion is pretty relevant to the subject:
Paralegal - Solicitors Office
Advisor - Co-Operative Bank
Trainee Legal Assistant - Soilictors Office
Advisor - BT.
As you can see these are not the worst jobs for what I want to do, and plus I am only 20.
Do you think it is even slightly credible that I may have a shot of getting Accepted into Oxbridge? Is it even worth trying? Has anybody done this before or knows of a similair story?
Sorry for the essay guys, and thanks for any feedback.
