Add-ons
All of our courses comprehensively cover the UK University admissions process through a series of interactive seminars and discussion groups. Our expert team demystifies the application process and help students understand what top UK univerisites—including Oxford and Cambridge—are looking for.
We appreciate that many of our students will be intending to start university next year in October, and so may require additional support as they prepare for their upcoming application. With this in mind, we have developed a range of add-on packages to support every student.
Personal Statement Consultation
The Personal Statement is a key part of any university application and a student’s opportunity to demonstrate passion for their subject. We understand a Personal Statement is a long-term project and we have designed a 2-hour package which guides and supports students through the writing process.
The Personal Statement Consultation Package includes:
During the Summer School —
A consultation with a Personal Statements expert
A 1-hour consultation with a Personal Statements expert, to plan and discuss the format and flow of your Statement.
After the Summer School —
A consultation with a Subject Specialist
A 1-hour consultation with a Subject Specialist, to develop and strengthen your Personal Statement in line with what Admissions Tutors are looking for. Further sessions may be arranged, for an extra fee.
Admissions Test Package
During the University Preparation Summer Courses, students will learn more about the Admissions Assessment they will need to take if they apply for their chosen subject through a series of seminars. If they wish, they can add on additional support by purchasing an Admissions Test package.
We have designed and produced Admissions Test papers for the most popular university courses, and our Summer Course students may purchase a comprehensive test package at a special discounted rate.
The Admissions Test package includes:
Test Paper
Mark Scheme
Full, worked-through solutions
Question-by-question video walk-through
The test paper exactly replicates the style of the original paper, and the package comes complete with a unique mark scheme, full solutions for each problem and a question-by-question video walk-through. These tests cannot be found elsewhere online and are entirely unique, therefore fully replicating the Admissions Test experience for the student.
Mock Interviews
Students attending the University Preparation Summer Courses will spend time learning about Mock Interviews, and what an Admissions Tutor may be looking for on the day. They will have the opportunity to watch some live Mock Interviews and discuss their merits/downfalls in an interactive forum.
Interviews are one of the most important parts of an application and for students making an application this year, a baseline interview in the summer is an excellent way to prepare. A baseline interview allows students to work on their development points throughout the autumn and perhaps undertake additional Mock Interviews closer to the time to hone their skills.
Our Mock Interviews are conducted by our specialist tutors with Oxford and Cambridge interview experience. They include:
30-minute formal interview
15 minutes of verbal feedback
a full written report
In the verbal feedback section, your interviewer will discuss how the interview went and points for improvement. The detailed written report which follows explains the content of the interview, assesses the student’s critical thinking and analytic skills, gives notes on their interview style, and explains how they can improve.
