What encouraged you to choose to join the Warwick Summer School?

I joined the Warwick Summer School because I have an interest in pursing finance and accounting in college and wanted an introduction with in-person lectures. I also was interested in living in a dorm prior to college.

What skills and knowledge did you gained during the 10 days that you have found most beneficial?

I learned interpersonal communication through the group project of creating an app. I had to learn to interact with people from around the world I had not met before! I also learned an introduction to economics which has helped me in my AP Economics class.

Did you build any new friendships during your time on the summer school?

I met many new people from around the world and had a great time learning about their cultures and how their school life is different from mine!

What was your highlight of taking part in Warwick Summer School?

I had a fantastic time during the day trip in London. Seeing Parliament was so beautiful and informative as I had not been there before. I also really liked the lecture on Game Theory because of its connection to investing in the stock market.

What advice would you give to future students participating in the Warwick Summer School to get the most out of the programme?

I would advise future students to take notes during lectures because they have been helpful for writing the personal statement. I would also advise future students to branch out and find friends outside of your assigned flatmates!
