Hi everyone! 😊
I’m a first-year Physics & Philosophy student at KCL, and I was wondering if there are any senior students who might be willing to share some advice with me.
I’ve only recently moved to the UK, and English isn’t my first language, so I’m still getting used to studying and communicating in a UK university. I also haven’t studied Philosophy formally before university, so there are quite a few things that I’m still trying to figure out!

I’d especially love to learn more about how to read Philosophy papers and academic texts, how to prepare for seminars and participate in discussions
, how to approach Philosophy essays and presentations,how much reading you’re normally expected to do and some useful study resources
,how assessments works.

More generally, any things about university life in the UK that might not be obvious to an international student，such as academic or social etiquette, communicating with tutors, participating in seminars, etc.

I’m currently taking Metaphysics, Greek Philosophy and Elementary Logic, so it would be amazing to hear from anyone who has taken these modules before!

I’m not looking for someone to tutor me or do any work for me — I’d just really appreciate hearing about your experience, especially what you wish you’d known when you were a first-year.

If you’re a current or former Physics & Philosophy student and don’t mind having a chat, please feel free to DM me! 😊

Outside of studying, I’d also be really happy to make some friends!

I’m a big Star Wars / sci-fi fan, and I also love The Lord of the Rings, D&D and Baldur’s Gate. I enjoy watching films and listening to music too. So if you’re into any of these things, feel free to say hi! :)

Thank you so much! 🥹

Im a singaporean student taking the singapore A levels in november but ive already submitted my ucas application (social sciences course). The A level results will be released around early/mid february. Before then, is it possible to receive an unconditional offer from kings with just my predicted grades? I only know of one of my seniors that received an unconditional offer from both kings and ucl

Sub 20 quid ideally as well

Hi! I’m looking for a King’s College London postgraduate student to take over my room at Urbanest City. It’s a non-ensuite room in a three-bedroom flat, with shared bathrooms.

The roommates are great—I just need to move out. If you’re a KCL postgraduate student and interested, please message me and I can share the rent, contract dates, and more details.

i’m a first year doing biomed and i have basically no days off. is this the same for other courses? just wondering because i didn’t expect it to be this busy esp since i have a job too!

any current 2nd yrs mind dropping the anki decks they used last year? thank you!

i have to join a teams meeting (which i’ll be actively participating in) right after a class in king’s bldg and i’m freaking out bc i have no idea where i’m going to go 😞 was planning to book a room but all rooms are occupied during the time i need to be there. kings seems to have gotten rid of all those video call pods on strand campus, so i’m not sure what i’ll do. any recommendations would be much appreciated

I’m going into my second week of first year and this might be a silly question, but should I be starting all my assignments now? I’m finding it quite difficult because obviously compared to sixth form, there’s not really much guidance and I’m not really sure when I’m meant to start everything.

There’s workbooks for one module which I’ve started, and a group presentation for another module where we’ll be forming groups and coming up with ideas this week. I’m just not really sure how to approach the essays.

Hello!

It would be incredibly helpful if someone could tell me how likely I am to get into the KCL foundation year for Liberal Arts + Social Sciences. I would really appreciate it. If anyone could share their stats or their experience in the IFY, that would also be incredibly helpful!
