- 16. Academic History • Ihave studied at York college since 2016-2019. In my first year of college the course I was attending Information & creative technology level two. In that course it was filled with automated systems, CAD, CAM, websites and a lot of programming. I found all of this very interesting and was something new that I hadn’t learnt before. I found the programming side to the course very challenging but kept along with it to achieve my highest grade possible. The end project that I had to complete was to programme a robot with instructions. The robot was equipped with multiple sensors so it knew when to turn or stop from a potential hazard. I would say as an end of year project it was a lot of fun and rewarding to successfully complete the task. I ended up doing really well in the course and came out with two distinctions and a merit. So persevering wit had work I couldn’t have asked for any better grades which then set me up to move onto my second year. Moving onto that second year I decided to change course to something that suited me better and that course was a level three creative media.
- 17. Current Study • Frommoving courses, my current study is a level three creative media course. My first year of the two year course, I really didn’t know what to expect but was still very curious and excited to start. For the first few months each class did rotations to learn each subject in the course. The three subjects are print, video games and short films. I was given five weeks for each rotation to learn and then create a product. Each product would be given a mark and feedback on what to work on for next time. After finishing the rotations, I was given the choice to specialise in one of the subjects and this was for our final grade to see if I Would get onto the second year of the course. With some very good time management skills and god concentration I managed to complete the task and I was pleased to find I achieved a merit for my effort. By securing a merit this gave me my place on the second year and a good amount of UCAS points. Before the start of my second year this course, I was full of confidence and belief that I can produce high level work. Of course this year was going to be harder then the previous first year but because of my time management, I'm more then confident that I wont struggle and hopefully achieve the highest grade possible. The work at sometimes can seem a little overwhelming but doesn’t stop me from completing my work. I have full belief in myself that I will achieve highly at the end of this level three course and I know this will help set up the next step in my life.
- 18. The Future • Fora while I wasn’t sure on what I wanted to do with my future but with some thought I know Uni would be ideal for me. I've asked friends and family about university and they said I should consider it if I want to proceed in my future. I have always loved music and can't go on throughout my day without constantly listening to music. So I have always known I want to be involved with music for my job when I've left university. I know if I want the right skills to excel in my future area of work then I'll need to go to university. The courses I have been looking at are music production and music journalism. I feel like these subjects would be the key skills in getting my dream job.
- 19. Outside College Outside ofcollege I have a weekend job. I have been working at the same place for about three years now and I've become a reliable hard working throughout the years. This place I work is a café and is a well known establishment in its area. During any holidays I will work more just weekend and will work more throughout the week. Over the years of working there, I have become a good asset to the café and I have been told how I am a brilliant worker. I have a strong belief that I may always have a place at the café and its something I enjoy. Whilst working at the café, its given me a lot of experience of dealing with the general public and I know this will aid me later on in life.
- 20. Conclusion • I wantto go to university because I feel that I'm ready for that higher level of education and to expand my knowledge in the music industry. I know for a fact that University will give me those skills to proceed successfully in life. I feel that I'm a good candidate because I work very hard with my work and with my passion for music I'll want to get the highest grades possible.
- 21. Introduction • I wantto go to University to study either a music production course or Music journalism. I know at University I will gain the needed skills to proceed in those two areas and I don't seen more beneficial choice then University.
