What Do Our Alumni Say?
I’m planning on pursuing medicine and cell biology in both A-level and university, so the programme showed me how it would be taught at a higher level.I found it very surprising how helpful my tutor was and how accommodating they were. They explained a lot of things over and over, and especially in one-to-one sessions beforehand, you got quite a bit of time to ask them questions about what you didn’t understand.
My tutor was very specialised in cell biology, which I found was very helpful because even in the lessons, if something wasn’t mentioned, they were able to use their own knowledge and explain it, which I found was very interesting because I learned some extra things along the way, too.
