Complete Work Experience
Start your research early - you have got 1000s of courses and over 100 universities to choose from - the more time you give yourself to explore your options, the more likely you are to find your perfect course and university.
Dive into super-curricular work - engaging in activities like further reading, the EPQ, MOOCs and taster sessions allow you to explore your chosen subject in depth and stand out in your application to your chosen universities.
Pick a course you will enjoy - at the very least you need to be sure you'll enjoy what you're studying, otherwise you won't have the necessary motivation to succeed. Seek advice from your family and friends and teachers, but make sure you make your decisions for yourself.
Virtual Schools Hub - Parents and Carers
