I could never get myself to read outside of school. Then I started watching your videos, and after a year, I've read almost 40 books. Harry Potter, some Dostoyevsky, Orwell etc. Now, I really enjoy reading in my free time. Thank you, Ruby, for making such inspiring videos.

[yikes]

It’s interesting seeing how different countries university systems work. I’m sittin here in Canada like 👁👄👁 🍿

A First is a First Ruby - there is no low first or high first it's just a First! Don't put so much pressure on yourself.

The chirping in the background is so soothing and magical 💕

Gets a 1st in an exam- "I'm a little disappointed with that" 😂

Unrelated, but I love the sound of the birds in the background!

I was wondering if you could do a video on how you study the books you read? :) xxx

[Paul-djoy]

Now this is great to see! Regarding the "low 1st, " you remind me of what a friend told me about an exam he had taken: he literally scraped a pass, and showed it to his father, anticipating a disappointed reaction. Instead, his father smiled, patted him on the back and said "well done - no point doing more work than you needed to!!!"

Obviously, it's important to aim high, and watching your channel I am rapidly forming the impression that you are the kind of person that always aims high. That effort counts for so much in life. If you hit the bullseye, it hardly matters that you don't hit it squarely in the centre.

I do not know how you’re so calm about this! I just finished my first year at Cam studying Theology and Philosophy of Religion and I was hyperventilating when I got the email with my results 😂

[sntzksworld]

Ruby, you did AMAZING! I hope you’re proud of how well you’ve done because all your viewers are! Congratulations 🥳🥺💜

CONGRATULATIONS on 483K, Ruby!
You have motivated me everyday for the past 6 months and I am truly grateful for that! Watching you grow this fast makes me really happy.
And my channel is growing too!! I have just passed a 200 subs and I am really proud to tell you that!
You are the type of person I aspire to be, everyday!

I would really love to see some videos on how you actually study and do your work, as in how you approach university readings, how you take notes from reading, how you write an essay effectively - like think of a clear thesis and argue not just describe and things like that. I love your lifestyle and study with me videos but some of us could actually do with some practical help, especially coming from someone who seems to have a very successful approach. Congrats! :)

You really give me a young 'Miss Honey' from Matilda vibes in this video. :) Congrats on your results!

I wish I could have 24 hour - open book exams. The only thing my professors did is increase the workload because "this is a great opportunity to learn more". Smh, it was worse than normal semester. We also postponed exams until it was safe enough for us to have them in person.. but it had twice as much stuff in it. Happy for you Ruby!
