Philosophy BA (2017)

What has been the highlight of your time at Exeter?

The highlight of my time at university was finishing my dissertation. It was very hard but completing it was so rewarding.

What will you miss the most about University?

I will miss the people the most. Exeter is very sociable and living in halls and houses with friends was so much fun.

What did you enjoy about your particular degree programme?

In philosophy there is a lot of freedom to choose which topics you focus your essays upon as well as the angle you want to take, so there is room to express your own ideas.

What advice would you give to current and future students?

Work hard but play hard too - balance is important! 

What are your plans now that you have graduated?

I plan to do a law conversion course with the hopes of becoming a solicitor in the future.
