Welcome back to the Driven Young Podcast, and MAN this is a good episode.

If you are in Highschool considering going to uni or if you are currently studying at university, this is a MUSt listen to so as it could literally change your life or your experience at university.

Today I am joined by James Walker, a mate from Highschool who is one of the hardest and highest performing people I know. He has a Black Belt in karate and in 2019 was ranked 6th in the world, scored a 99.5 ATAR in high school, has been the recipient of multiple prestigious scholarships, he has landed over 4 internships, one of them with the United States Senate, been involved in countless leadership activities, is the founder of the company Ambition tutoring and so much more... all at the age of 21.

In this episode we dial in and laser focus on this conversation on university and how to crush uni so you are set up for life. We dive deep into how to choose the right degree, extra curriculum activities, joining societies, how to make friends at uni, how to take advantage of your tutors, how to land internships, how to build up your experience and create an impressive resume while studying, we go deep into scholarships and how you actually have a massive chance of getting on using this simple strategy. I could keep going on but we cover all this and so much more.

In terms of practically this episode provides so much take away value for younger people and I really encourage you to listen to the whole episode. Please share this episode with anyone you know thinking about going to university or anyone you know currently at university.
