I dropped out of medicine at Oxford as despite the amazing opportunity was just not into medicine for a career. So i changed to Edinburgh university and did maths and economics. Now work in New York for a great Investment management firm . Always opportunities

OMD I was literally in the same position this year March and have never related so much. Also dropped out of UCL but just before term 2 ended and I am now studying a whole new degree elsewhere. It’s difficult dropping out but you made the right decision and you’ll be thanking yourself down the line. Wishing you the best for your gap year and future endeavours!

Aaa I can relate to so much of what you've said in this video. I kind of panicked and couldn't come to a decision about what to do in Year 13, applied for engineering then got rejected lol. It wasn't for me anyways, so I'm on a gap year now and focusing on figuring out my next steps (maybe physics at uni, I'm thinking of ucl as well) , internships and work experience, mental health, hopefully travelling as well! I'm glad you figured out that medicine and chem at ucl wasn't for you and its really important to be able to say no, this isn't for me and it's not taking me anywhere so I'm going to leave. I think what you said about the chem degree not leading you towards the life you want is a really good insight to have and it will really help you find your own path. Yeah and good luck on your gap year, I hope you enjoy your travelss!! What countries are you thinking of? I'm hoping to do a Europe interrailing trip during February to March

Hi Mia! Please tell us/make a video on where/what you're doing now!😊

You’re so wise girl ! Big slay ❤

I dropped out this year, as well. I relate to struggle and stress that comes with these choices

So proud if you! Do you know what field you want to enter next/courses you're looking at applying to?xxx

👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏

u look so good

Proud of you for taking that decision for yourself!! I'm currently on a degree apprenticeship would defo recommend it, especially as someone who is more of an independent person and tbh, I couldn't imagine doing a full time degree now! Make sure you take your time and hopefully you enjoy your gap year and get to where you want to be Mia 🤍
