How I Passed my 1st Year as PhD Student at Cambridge - My Experience + Tips

I hope you enjoy this video in which I explain how I passed my first year as a PhD student at the University of Cambridge. In order to be registered as a PhD student at Cambridge, you need to pass the formal 1st year PhD registration exercise (or registration assessment exercise). In this video, I detail the documents necessary for this registration exercise (10 000 chapter, thesis plan, PhD log, and registration document) and how I made sure I did well in them.

Thank you, Zee, for demystifying the first year! That has eased my nerves a bit as somebody coming to start a PhD in Philosophy in October at Cambridge.

Can I just say how inspiring you are? A badass woman in philosophy who is not afraid to show off other interests (compare: those people who wear their monomania for philosophy on their sleeve, which I find contributes to the toxicity of this field). I'm hoping I can also keep my non-philosophic interests VERY much at the forefront of my life, too, when I begin my PhD. I want to ace my thesis and all that, but y'know, it's not that deep (sorry, Kant) - I wanna live my best boujee life too yo'. Thanks for the video!!!!
