🎓 Oxford: Reality vs. Myth – My Honest Experience

For the first time ever, I’m going solo on the podcast! While César enjoys his holiday, I’m following his strict instructions to discuss the reality of the (in)famous University of Oxford.

💡 What’s in this episode?

🎭 The myths & realities of Oxford life
🏛 How hard is it really to get in?
📚 Why the tutorial system is so intense
🎓 Why so many UK politicians studied there
🍷 The ‘work hard, party hard’ social scene
🤯 The pressure & mental health challenges of Oxford students
🗣 Why I feel awkward even mentioning I went to Oxford
