Zero Gravity is amazing!
The Zero Gravity programme helped me so much as a student from a state school, giving me access to information, tips and support from people who have actually been through the university process. Being one of the first people to apply to university in my whole family, I didn't know much about it, so my mentor was amazingly helpful. Would definitely recommend.
Experience
The experience has been fantastic. It has helped prepare me further for university whilst also helping me write my personal statement and understand the process. Overall the mentoring has been amazing and I have been taught many things about what to expect of university and applying for it.
Amazing Mentoring Website.
Zero Gravity has been very helpful in matching me with a well suited mentor and providing masterclasses about anything to do with university. I do not know much about life at university and I was struggling to choose where to apply and what to write for my personal statement. My mentor gave me a lot of advice about good universities for me and even encouraged me to apply to the USA for university. The masterclasses for Oxbridge admissions were really helpful too and I am so grateful for the advice I received.
Zero Gravity Platform
Personally, I have found the Zero Gravity platform to be super helpful to prepare for applying/going to university. I really appreciate how the masterclasses take place in the evening so that I can work around my school schedule. My favorite part of the whole platform would have to be having my own mentor who is a current university student studying the subject that I hope to study, meaning that they can provide me with personalized advice concerning my A-Levels and applying to university. My mentor has been great in providing me with revision tips and guiding me with different super-curricular opportunities. Also, my mentor has been great with setting up meetings to help me with my goals and working around my schedule. I also really appreciate how the Zero Gravity platform allows for students in sixth form and university to easily build a community and give each other advice and support. Overall, I think that Zero Gravity is honestly such an amazing platform that allows for students who wouldn't otherwise have access to information about or the belief that they even could apply to top universities. I'm really grateful to be a part of the Zero Gravity community!
Great website!
Great website! You have online informative webinars which advise you in many aspects of your educational journey. You can apply to be a mentee and will receive an undergrad to advise you through the process. You can post questions in the community and many people will be happy to lend you a hand :) They are also constantly developing the site! A recent development is the personal statement AI feature which you can utilise as a tool to aid you in the writing process.
Best resource for y12/13 students applying to uni!!!!
Genuinely the most helpful resource I’ve used to prepare for uni applications and a level exams! Talks from current students, lecturers and organisations with personalised mentors based on aspirations and all for free! As someone from a less represented background Zero Gravity has given me so much confidence and happiness to actually strive to achieve my goals going to university. I’ve been able to access so many materials that I would not normally be able to at school. :)
Great site to get into your dream university
They have given me great advice for my future university experience like getting my personal statement sorted and giving me a taste of how to get accommodation and student finance advice
Fantastic help from mentors!
My mentor made a great impact upon writing my personal statement. She put alot of effort in to it and made the whole process alot easier. She was able to help me with questions, structure, grammar and lots more!!! I dont think I could have done it without the help of my Zero Gravity Mentor
My Experience
The site has helped me a lot with the process of going through sixth form and provided me with more confidence about my potential courses and life at university by setting me up with mentors and the online masterclasses available.
The community
My tutor is amazing and kind, she is incredibly helpful and I love the community here. It’s easy to find resources and get help if you have any questions
