Ever since I received my CSC results I had the dream of gaining a place at Oxford University. From this point, it was the members of staff within the geography department that gave me that continued support and encouragement which eventually enabled me to succeed in reaching my dreams of reading geography at Hertford College. Without these individuals and the breadth of the geography and world development courses that were offered at Sharnbrook, this would never have been possible. What also proved to be invaluable to my application process was the opportunity to take both my GCSE and A level maths one year early, which was fairly unique to Sharnbrook. Not only do I feel that this helped me to stand out amongst others, but my qualification meant that my offer was for two as opposed to three A level subjects. This relieved so much pressure in my final A level year, which helped make my overall experience that much more enjoyable.

I hope to graduate as a doctor in 2018, where I would like to train in paediatrics or haematology, as I love children and find treating blood cancers particularly interesting because it affects the whole body, and it is near-enough impossible to remain a generalist doctor nowadays! I also find psychiatry very interesting, as this has been an area that has affected me throughout my life and I would like to make a difference for others. Once I start working, I would like to live in a nice little house in Norfolk with lots of animals to keep me busy when I'm not on-call!

I enjoyed the freedom I was given for independent learning, which has set me up well for university. Whilst some of my university friends have struggled with organising their work schedules, the structure Sharnbrook Sixth Form gave me allowed me to allocate my time effectively to meet deadlines at school and later at university. Outside academia, Computer science provided me with fantastic sporting opportunities to develop my talents, giving me the confidence to represent several clubs at university level and make an additional circle of friends. I also worked on some PHSEE projects, which were hugely beneficial.
