Oxbridge consultancy

From a purely academic standpoint, there are few loftier goals than achieving an offer at the University of Oxford or Cambridge. It is no easy goal to achieve especially when we consider that for most students this is a once in a lifetime application. By its very nature, most students will have no previous experience applying for university and that is why it is so important to have an education professional in your corner.

What does Oxbridge look for?

Oxford and Cambridge are looking for the students with the biggest brains and the most enthusiasm for their subjects. Sure, extra-curricular activities are interesting, but the people who assess your applications are academics, and they want to speak with students who are as passionate about the subject as they are.

You’ll need a combination of knowledge, effort, critical thinking and intuition to make it through all the application stages. Not only this but you’ll have to demonstrate this at every stage as well. With every student working hard to try and stand out, this is easier than it sounds.

How can you demonstrate this?

You have a limited number of opportunities to demonstrate your knowledge, effort, critical thinking and intuition. Here they are:

1. Academic grades

2. Personal statement

3. Reference

4. Admissions tests

5. Interview

In each of these stages, good simply won’t cut it. You are competing against students who would chop their hands off for the opportunity to study at Oxford or Cambridge. You need to approach every moment with an obsession for your subject.
