Philosophy Work Experience
Hi,
I’m currently in year 11, and hope to eventually go on to do philosophy at university. In the mean time, I hope to get in some work experience for philosophy whilst I am at 6th form, and I was wondering if people had any advice on good work experience placements for philosophy?
Many thanks in advance 😊

You don't need work experience for an academic degree. What you will need to show in your personal statement is a passion for your subject through additional reading, etc. Cambridge uni has a recommended reading list for prospective applicants:
