Hello
So i came across a youtube video yesterday
And i thought is a pretty cool cepcepto to do
So i'm going to be rating other things
That people think you should do in university
Which of them are truly worth it
And which of them are not this claimer
This is just from my personal experience
Like don't take it super seriously
So i graduated from london school of economics last share
And i just now finish my my first share of masters degree
So i'm going to give it a rating system
The five points are the ones that i wish i have done more
If i haven't done it like i would definitely want to go back to do it
Otherwise i would have regret ted it so being graone it are those i wish i'd spend any detime on so the fast one is a very controversial one
I think just trutruonto time back
And being a rerelaship like it is true
That university feels like a live dating platforms
Because you meeting so many new people did i do that yes
Did i didn't it
It at time time um
Because who wouldn't want like a really rotiontic tic in a relationship at campus
However there also comes with some risks and some coms for example being in a relationship takes up a lot of your time
It almost feels like a part time job to me
I was always making plans with my boyfriend
Then and he took up literally most of my weekends
And i feel like i wasn't seeing my friends as often
And also another thing is i we're being honest the relationship that you have in university is probably not going to last
And if you use someone like me
Who's really bad at dealing with break ups
That enormous paying would hit you really hard
And this is some of the risk that you have to bury mind
But so for examted for me
That break up literally interke me and destroyed my life for half a year
Which is a really long time
That i feel like i kind of wasted my last year of school
Because i just physically
I couldn't do anything
I wasn't well mentally
I think that break up experience was definitely a one to me being in corporate
I think on average i'll give it a three
The next one is finding an internship
This one i think it's underrelated
I guess for most of the uniune dents in china
They're probably going to pursue in masterter degree
But masterter degree is not like human in the uk
Allot people will just decide to go to the corporate world
After they graduate
So that internship is probably what you can get the closest to the real world is also really good for your cv
It
It increases a lot of your chances
I know the job market is really difficult now and probabably going to get anything
Even if you apply like a hundred
Hundred
Two hundred jobs at least
I think the process of learning how to apply is itself valuable
You can learn n law on that like what to write on your cv
How to behave in a video interviews
I also understand in some university
In my case
In allessy
Theis like a really big like career driven culture one thing to remind yourself is that you don't need to follow anyone's footsteps friends
Probably all want to go into investment banking
But it's fine that you don't
It's fine that you don't apply for iby jobs
Not everyone has to go to finance consulting law
No one is responsible for choosing a career
Other than yourself finding an intertenship
I would give it a jobfive the next one is doing part time jobs
I think it's probably that five or six different part time jobs during uni
I think this one is a bit jobs
I'll probably give it a three
Obviously if you need that money to support yourself go over it
But i was lucky enough that i didn't have to worry about my financials during uni
So i think this one is like a life banking
But a matter of part times
I think there are only two circus circumstances that you should do it
It's either it pays really well or you really like it for me
How of the internships on neether of those a love
It is just tutoring ii just feel like i can do it
And that's what lot of my friends are doing but through many tries i realizze that don't
Don't like teaching people
I can get quite impatient
If you like it
Or if it pays well do it
Otherwise you don't have to spend so much time on doing part time jobs
The fourth one i've gone is travelling
Definitely a five honestly like after you get to the corporate world
You won't get as much as freedom as now being a student also for us in auk preprety convenient to just travel around europe
Bam
It's literally like a two hours flight from london
If i graduate
If i come back to live in china
I have to like plan out everything
But the twelve i was flight to europe
Well well
Now i could just decide to go the next day
The next one is keeping a good great
I know this is controversial
And i also try
Try hard to get a first degree
How
However i also think this one is slightly overrated
If you want to get into masters or like go down this academic route
You should definitely
Definitely keep it a very good great
Especially for masters application
I don't think your personal statement matter as that much compared to when we apply for undergrat it just comes down your great
But if you just want to work afterwards honestly not much people up your are are
If you have to your time right
If you end this just comes down to how you want to allocate your time right right if you want
If you're really like this subjects that you doing go over it
But if you just want to be efficient but just get a decent grde
And that's it you can be smart in this
And plan how much time indeed to study research that how your school grade your classification
The next one i've got is applying for maaster degree
Oh
You not just is tricky studying without scholarship oversea is expensive as whole i know that
I also just feel like i'm just burning my parents money
But yeah
I just couldn't feel like i was ready to go to the corporate world after graduating uni so momost's degree from me at that point is the best option
Obviously you don't have to do mosters degree
I think in the uk at least they don't really care if you have a mostter degree or not uni unless full like a very specispecial role for example economic consulting
They might need you to have an masters e on degree
But i think most generic rows
Yeah
A lot people don't have mostter degree
It honely just comes down to you
If you can afford
And if you think think specifor you
You could do it
It
It's definitely not a must a leadof of experiah obviouly ly you
You come back to work in china
You probably need one because that's
How that's part of the job requirement
Overall i'll give applying for mostter sagree eat three point
But the next one i've got is running for a society committee
This is another one that i think you should try
It's probably good to have some of the leadership experience
So you can put on cv
And you have more like these little stories to tell in interviews
But definitely don't spend much time on this
And unless like you will really like the thing that you do ing
I know some people take up down for society committee rose and then in the end they are just so busy
They're not even doing anything for the society
Is also like quite irresponsible to do it that way right
Yeah
Just noyal limit like for me
I was a treasuure of the music society in second yet
And i was a president of the society in interduge
Yeah
A lot of my times doing this adment things
You know creating posters
Booking venues
嗯 Yeah
A low logistics
To run to run
I didn't ret ted
Because i tually loved what i was doing
I really love music and through music society
I was also make able to make some of my best friends
I definitely wouldn't take up another society roles
I definfeel feel i can do it
Yeah
I think this is probably a three poiny
If as well the last one i've got is joining a society that you're interested in
This is absolutely if i for me like i said i was able to make a lot of friends from singing i'm playing piano
Yeah
This is also great for your social circle
As well you probably enough meeting this finfriends
Where the love people that have to similar inteintefor
Yeyeah
It's you're already connected in
That sense is just because gets people closer
Yeah
It's also great for your mental health
As well i think people need to recharge
Because doing what socieroyeah
Long day day of of studying
Yeah
That's it for the video
I don't know why i can talk
Like how i nobody talk to myself with this camera
I like this setting up
But yeah
I'll be enjoy peace
