3. Mental health and wellbeing as a student
We posted a question on the Hi-R Instagram asking you what you would like to hear next and we listened!
We thought we'd start with this podcast on mental health and wellbeing before uploading the Revision Tips podcast, as it is important that you are in a healthy state of mind in order to be effective with revision.
So, in this podcast Camilla and Tosin discuss some of the issues surrounding mental health as a student. They also talk through their journey with mental health throughout university and share some tips on how you can overcome the same issues - ranging from meditation, to doctor's notes and university counselling.
All-student friendly, as per.

1. The journey into university (LSE)
In this introductory episode, Camilla and Tosin talk about the challenges of transitioning from A-Levels to university. From turning AS grades ‘ABBC’ to ‘A*AA’ in A2, to forcefully having to take a gap year because of the marking policies of an examining board that year, the journey into one of the top universities in the UK (and in the world) was anything but easy.
