At Already Doing It we believe in being honest about everything — including our own results. This post shares what students have told us about their experience of the platform and what the data from our sessions shows.
The consistent theme across student feedback is confidence. Students who complete an Already Doing It session consistently report feeling more certain and more informed about their university choices. They describe the experience as different from any other form of careers guidance they have accessed — more honest, more personal and more directly relevant to their specific situation.
Across our pilot sessions, students reported a significant increase in confidence in their university choices following a single session. This is the metric we care most about — not whether students changed their mind, but whether they felt more certain and better informed about the decision they made.
Students who feel genuinely confident in their university choice are more likely to commit fully to their degree, less likely to withdraw and more likely to have a positive experience. That is good for students, good for schools and good for universities.
Our mentors consistently report finding the sessions rewarding and genuinely useful. They appreciate the opportunity to share what they’ve learned and to help students avoid the uncertainty they may have experienced themselves when making their own university decisions.
In feedback collected from students who have used Already Doing It, the platform was rated the most useful source of pre-university guidance they had accessed — ahead of open days, prospectuses and careers adviser meetings. Students specifically cited the honesty, relevance and personalisation of the sessions as the reasons for this rating.
For schools running Already Doing It pilots, the impact data feeds directly into Gatsby Benchmark evidence and Compass Plus reporting. Schools receive a full Impact Report following each pilot cohort, formatted for statutory requirements and requiring zero additional administrative work from staff.
