as a first gen in my family to go to uni, i barely know anything about uni. i’ve just started the UCAS process, today actually. i’m so excited but i’m also very apprehensive about how uni is going to go. your videos on Edinburgh uni are so helpful as it’s my first choice uni. thank you so much for making this video!! ❤️❤️

I have just finished my degree and can agree with almost everything you said, even if I did it in another different country. They weren't the best 4 years of my life tbh, but it is okay and still have good memories and learned a lot (just hoping better things and more exciting ones are coming!!)

I'm also going to start my fourth year and these tips are stil so helpful, sometimes I still struggle to find a balance between university, work and personal life but I guess that you learn as you go. For me one of the most important things that I learnt is that everyone has thieir own time and you don't have to feel like a failure If thing don't go as you planned because eventually you will get there. You need to take care of yourself and your mental health! Love your content 💞🌺🌷

I agree with everything... except with the friends and friendships things. I was an outcast in HS, so I don't really have friends from that time in my life, just "acquaintances". But in uni, I made so many lifelong friends, despite still being not very social.

I think this first tip is a valid for all of life! I’m 31 and have often thought, moving to a new country, starting a new job, getting into a new relationship, that I’m going to be different, that things will be different. But like you said, you can’t escape essence and that’s always going to come first. Ps if anyone can recommend similar vids for adults wanting to study whilst full time working, let me know!

And I was thinking thay maybe, if you feel comfortable about it, you could talk in another video or podcast episode about the news on climate change, fires , Haïti, Lebanon and Afghanistan , and how to stay optmistic despite this amount of extremelly depressing and sad events. I have to say that I'm struggling a lot and feel quite overwhelmed by everything. Love from France
