The CV That Got Me Into Oxford & Cambridge

So you need to write an academic CV? In this video I show you exactly what I included on my CV for my application to the University of Cambridge and the University of Oxford!

I came here in April 2024, and I followed the same structure you have used on your CV, and I just wanted to thank you so much for helping us, now it is June 2024 and I was approved for my masters degree at Shanghai Jiao Tong University. Thank you very much ❤

Honestly you're amazing, it's clear that you put in a lot of effort to take part in internships and relevant work experience whilst doing your undergraduate studies (it's easier said than done, especially when considering how hefty a Mathematics degree is, so kudos to you). Those Oxbridge offers were well deserved, and I'm not surprised. They'd be crazy to reject you! Congratulations, looking forward to keeping up with your academic journey 👏💕

This is incredible! Perhaps one of the best academic CV examples for postgrad that I've come across. I'm so glad I rediscovered your channel, your videos are so useful!

I found it very useful, thank you for sharing!!!

I was about to submit something totally different and basic, I feel lucky that I found your video, great content. I hope you have an excellent time studying in either Oxford or Cambridge! Also hopefully you can keep on creating more content about your journey! Greetings from Mexico

Thank you very much for sharing these valuable insights! Your experiences demonstrate how active, and enthusiastic you were/are about what you are doing, and in general how aware you are about your life and path! All the best!

Blimey, im 30 and i studied maths at uni ten years ago, the knowledge you have by just looking at your coding channel shows me you knew way more then me when i was at your age, also im looking up virtual work experience at jp morgan, i didnt even knew that existed, how did you come across or find that?

[arantzaorquideacrdovalpez]

I admire that you found out how to show what you have done! And honestly gave me the perspective to look at my experience more kindly and talk about it attractively!! I have a question. I'd like to know if, besides their names (in your references), you added an e-mail address or a phone number.

When Cambridge university sees your efforts and your hard work, he will say that I want this girl, I'm sure you have been selected, because now I saw your video, I'm really inspired, inshallah I will follow your method and expose yourself (me)skills,

Bro how did she manage to do all that my CV ends with my university research I have nothing 😭😭

[meandermyan]

Really really helpful!! Thank you so much! I noticed that there are a few bullet points end with just one single word standing at the front of a new line, perhaps it would look better if you could put the word in the previous line.😊

[fatamy]

i don't even have that much work experience outside of uni. i have no clue what to do now 😭

[dazai]

thank you so so much! you've been very helpful :-))))
