Testimonials

"I liked being able to ask any questions about the course and learning about the overall experience of studying Physics at university. I also appreciated that the presentation gave a clear overview of the course, the opportunities available at the university, and the flexibility the session allowed for."

"I work full-time as a waitress, but I’ve always been curious about studying business at university. Using Already Doing It, I got to chat with a current business student, and it honestly changed everything for me. She was so down to earth and answered all my questions about the course, career options, and how she’s managing the workload. It made university feel a lot less intimidating, and way more achievable. I’m now seriously considering applying. This platform is such a brilliant idea!"

“As a pharmacist thinking about going back to university to study medicine, I found this platform incredibly helpful. Speaking to a current medical student gave me real insight into the course and the workload. It felt relaxed and honest, no sugar coating, just genuine advice. I left the session feeling much more confident and excited about the idea of retraining”

"The level of detail provided was incredible. Dan was very welcoming and played a huge role in making the whole experience seamless. I’ll be recommending this to a friend, as it cleared up many of the questions I had about university. I really enjoyed how the session was presented, being guided through all aspects of university life in such a clear, systematic way... The mentor was very open and honest, they didn’t paint an unrealistic picture of university life, but also didn’t make it sound overly daunting."

"Speaking to a law student at Cambridge through Already Doing It was honestly one of the most helpful things I’ve done during sixth form. I got real insight into what studying law is actually like, way beyond what you read online. She shared tips on applying, managing the workload, and even what a typical day looks like. It made me feel more confident and excited about applying, and showed me that people like me can go to places like Cambridge. I'd recommend this to anyone who's unsure about their next steps."
