UC Berkeley Event and so much more!
Hi, Sunny here.For 11 years, I have helped students build their CVs and get into some of the best universities in the UK and America such as Oxford, Stanford, and Yale. You can sign up here to receive my newsletter on CV-building activities alongside tips and insights on succeeding in the admissions process. I am also on Twitter and Instagram. And if you want professional help with university admissions, our company website is here. Whilst putting together the events for this week’s newsletter, the complete lack of events struck me. I suspect some of this is to do with budget cuts among other things. Regardless, this has some negative implications for your child. It means that unless they prepped far in advance, their CV might have a gap this summer. If your child is about to head into their final year of school, this presents a serious problem. I have provided links to two events they can still do. I would strongly recommend that you tell them to sign up. Upcoming Events:The Mystery of the Jury by UC Berkeley: One of the most well-known and respected universities in America is hosting an event that is a must go for students interested in Law, or any of the other social sciences. The event will focus on the function of the Jury in the legal system- it’s origins, function and the unique perspective that jurors have during a trial. It is online, so there is no excuse not to sign up. 2 August. Women in Science: Space Tour: The Natural History Museum is offering free tours throughout August, September and October focusing on the stories of how female scientists have changed the world through their research. Open to all ages, and completely free, this event is great for those who are interested in scientific theory and history. This would be an amazing event to take your daughter to, as it might provide her with some inspiration and motivation. Next tour date: 6 August. Shorelines, Snowflakes and Sierpinski Triangles: Hosted by the prestigious Royal Institution, this workshop looks at how geography and physics connect in some beautiful ways. Run by Jenny Sharp, a mathematician at Plymouth University. It is aimed at a younger demographic than we normally suggest (13-15), but it is a great way to introduce your child to the world of Maths, Physics and Geography. 7 August. Video Highlights:Applying for a Masters? Here is a quick burst of information you can use to make your life easier. In this rapid-fire video, we provide some brief tips that can help you boost your chances of success. Deadline countdown (Sep '23 intake):

A&J on YouTube How selective universities evaluate applicants We’ve been sharing a series of conversations on our YouTube channel focused on university admissions, academic thinking, and the broader questions within education.

Jorge Pereira CamposCEO, A&J Education · Psychologist · Researcher Why we mistake relief for safety (and why it matters) Do you ever avoid something difficult just to stop your heart from racing? Almost a decade ago, I received an email from my PhD supervisor with the subject line “Feedback.” Even though she was a kind and supportive supervisor, my heart immediately started racing. So I did what I’ve done in many moments of my adult life: I swiped the email into the archive and avoided...
