    I was feeling SUPER nervous about taking Geography because of the rumour that nobody gets employed. You have made me feel so much better. Thank you so much for making this video

      I have no idea what I want to do with my future but I enjoy geography. I have no idea what my future holds and it scares me, but now I feel so much better :)

      May seem like a stupid question but is geography a uni difficult? Like is it much more challenging than a level geography?

    By studying the elements of Geography and then getting the chance to travel to another planet and meet the inhabitants, I'd be better equipped to ask questions, know where I'd want to visit and be able to evaluate, usefully, what I'd learned.

    I am considering Bachelor of Arts (Geography) as a mature student, here in NZ, for next year! still a little unsure if its right for me, but seems more up my alley as opposed to any of the sciences uni offers. However it will be via Distance. Would you think distance study would be just as good as on campus study? Your advice on this would be amazing. Thank you :)

      I think it depends on what you want to get out of it - there is excellent teaching online but it requires personal motivation and engagement

    I love physical geography but I’m scared the course will be filled with too much of the maths/ statistics which I’m not good at. If I took MA Geography is it less science and will I still be able to specialise in the physical part?

    • @thecuriousgeographer
      @thecuriousgeographer  Před rokem

      hi! if you are super interested in physical I would check carefully on the units as a BSc is usually more physical. Just ask the uni?

    Hi everyone, I’m a student in year 12, and I am thinking about studying geography at university; however, I haven’t taken it at A-level (silly of me I know) and I take maths, chemistry, French and computer science (one of which will become an AS). I have looked at some courses and you don’t need geography at A-level to do it at university (even though it would be better to). I was wondering if anyone could give me any advice? Thank you!

      @zoeskinner2871 Před 3 lety +1

      If you want to study it and you often don't need to have done it at A level, then go for it!! It's a great subject to study.

    • @user-ps2iy1eg4n
      @user-ps2iy1eg4n Před 3 lety

      i’d recommend keeping maths, chemistry and french. you don’t need geography a level for some courses and maths and chemistry is useful for physical geography and french is useful for more of the international affairs side of human geography maybe??? i’m sure you’d be fine with your subjects!
