Why You Shouldn't Study At Oxbridge

TL;DR - It is hard to make friends at Oxbridge, the workload is high and it is very stressful. Don't underestimate the impact this can have on your life. And don't overestimate the value of going to a uni like Cambridge. I'm not trying to say that no one should study at Oxbridge. Rather, I'm trying to educate people on what it is like studying at these unis. There is a lot in media which romanticises Oxbridge, so this video serves as the antithesis to that. Anyone making the decision of whether to study here should weigh the pros and cons delicately. 0:00 Introduction 1:50 Preface - Should You Trust Me? 3:54 Uni experience 5:49 My university experience 8:03 Friendships at Cambridge 11:54 Stress at Cambridge 20:02 Final comments 22:50 Outro This is the first YouTube video I have made in 10 years, so apologies if it is too long and unwieldy. I was considering not uploading this, because I spent a while editing this and still wasn't (and am not) happy with it. The chances are, this video will help no one, and will only serve as an additional source of embarrassment for me. But you have to try the difficult things in life, especially if you're not happy with the way things are.
