    my topic is about oil, the impact it has had on the world, and alternatives to it. I think I could relate it to economics pretty easily. BTW great video it was very well made and produced keep it up

    Hey! Not sure if you still check these comments, but how would you go about an EPQ that is predominantly pure maths based?

    • @FarisDent
      @FarisDent  Před 2 měsíci

      you can do it on any project! just think of how you can relate it back to dentistry in an interview

    hi faris, your videos are great thank you! my topic is on the “extent of the pandemic on geriatric dentistry in the uk”. my essay roughly goes like this: background on the oral health of older people, background on the pandemic, then i discuss the effect on dentistry then finally on geriatric dentistry, before i conclude. is there any other point you think i could add which would be useful as well as increasing my word count?

    • @FarisDent
      @FarisDent  Před 3 lety

      That sounds great so far ; seems like plenty of content for your EPQ - maybe look at the effects of arthritis on the elderly and how it impacts their oral health?

    My epq idea is robotics. im almost at M4 stage I have a specific tittle that fits 3 marks but can you tell me if I have a good variety of sources:
    1 podcast
    7or 8 articles
    2 ted talks
    2 books
    Thank you Very much

    • @FarisDent

      You don't need to do one to stand out! Instead you can do an independent research project or enter essay prizes to gain skills.

    • @FarisDent
      @FarisDent  Před rokem

      Anything you want! I would recommend you do a wide search of impacts of cancer on dental treatment or medical / drug interactions / changes in quality of life - a good place to start getting ideas is literally by writing 'cancer research' in google and looking at different sites for content
