Applying to Oxford? Look here.Hello!
Having read through the Oxford section of the forum, it seems most of you want to know how to apply to Oxford.
As a result, I've made a Youtube Series called OXAPP.
(The series now been acknowledged by Oxford University! Please see the attached screenshot below).
It is a 6 week video series all about applying to Oxford. However, it includes advice from students who have successfully made it through the process.
1. How to choose a Degree
2. The Application Process and how to choose a College
3. Admissions Tests
4. The Personal Statement
5. The Interview
6. The Result
The series is now live:
http://youtu.be/1TvG_SG7UJ0
Also, the series has since made it on to Oxford University's official YouTube channel as a recommended series:

If you have already received an offer, I will be making more videos in the future all about life at Oxford (including my recent trip to CERN and my internship in Japan).
All the best,
J

Re: Applying to Oxbridge? I've made something for you!This is a great idea! Hope you don't mind me plugging my tumblr on this page but I made it for students hoping to apply to Oxford or Cambridge:

Hopefully people will find it interesting, and they can ask questions about the universities and applications process, which I'll do my best to answer.

I'm going to the BEST college, what do you think?
No problem They make me laugh
Oh and btw everyone always forgets to mention the MLAT
Again, that one is quite specific, like the PAT or the ELAT, for example.

Re: Applying to Oxbridge? I've made something for you!Well, I'm obviously bias as everyone thinks their own college is the best so I'm saying Magdalen :P(Original post by such_a_lady)
