So, Tell Me...

This episode I talk to Chidera, a Master's student at the University of Surrey, who I met in second year during our Bioscience Undergraduate degrees. We cover a number of topics including how as an international student, Chidera prepared for University in the US and UK, her experience with bad housemates in on-campus accommodation and how she is finding her Master's compared to her Undergraduate dissertation.

This episode Zsófi and I talk about a whole host of topics including our favourite places on campus at the University of Surrey and Guildford, how being an international student and becoming fluent in English was an obstacle but not as much as you would think and how you might not think bioinformatics is for you but if you are anything like us, it definitely is!

I talk to Irenie about living at home whilst at University Vs living on Campus or in a house share. She also tells the story of how she found out about the great support provided by Surrey for Disabled Students and finally how a Gap year before starting Uni helped set her up for the most beneficial university experience.

This week I talk to two very important people who I met whilst on Placement in North Carolina, USA. The best friend duo Katy Browne and Sarah Novroski! We talk about our favourite memories from last year, how they both graduated early and got into grad school and finally about how they first met. It’s a great and chaotic conversation which I really enjoyed, I hope you do too.

Please Note The squeaking in the background is from Alice’s dogs playing with some very loud toys, don’t blame them they are deaf x

This episode I talk to Alice Ravenscroft, a final year veterinary bioscience student who I met in first year. Alice and I have shared many adventures, some that are named and some that are not (for health reasons). Alice is charismatic and funny and throughout the episode we have the honour of also listening to Alice’s dogs in the background. We talk about our University of Surrey experiences as well as Alice’s interesting second year housemates.

In this new episode of So, Tell Me, I talk to Esmé, my childhood best friend and co-host of the Sparking Connections podcast about their experience applying to Oxbridge, managing expectations of university and letting go of friends that have blocked you on social media. Esmé is currently on a gap year but will be returning to education to do a Master's at Cambridge University. We have known each other for over 10 years and their insight is incredibly valuable to me so enjoy this week's interview.
