My Zero Gravity experience has been positive. My mentor has helped me to stay organised and stress-free during exam season. I have also received some help with my Personal Statement, which has been great. I have gained insights into what it would be like to study Law at University, which has made me excited for my future. Overall, I have learnt that University is the place for me and I should not be reluctant to go to University. In the past, finances prevented me from even thinking about applying to University, but that does not stop me anymore, and as a result, I have applied to 5 Universities, received 4 out of 5 offers and made my firm and insurance choices. The Zero Gravity platform, especially the mentoring, has played a huge role, throughout my UCAS journey.

Having been feeling a little lost on how to navigate year 12 & 13, I stumbled across Zero Gravity. Ever since, I have grown in confidence a lot, understanding my abilities and skills which I can use to my advantage. This is thanks to my mentor. She has been so lovely and willing to work with me. She helped me develop my personal statement which got me offers from all five of my choices. I can’t thank her enough because she understood where I lacked self confidence and helped me to redirect this to to my true strengths. I cant wait to start studying business management at University in September with my new found aspirations.

I found that the ability to engage with new types of maths outside of school and even outside of what I thought I was interested in was enriching. Being able to discuss with someone who had more experience than me was very enlightening when picking universities and the exact course right for me.

My experience with Zero Gravity has not only transformed my vision of my future, but also given me the skills, information and encouragement to pursue it. The community page has been a space of camaraderie in a high-pressure year, while the masterclasses have been an invaluable source of information, demystifying the Cambridge application process. Yet, the most rewarding aspect has been my meetings with Theo which have prepared me for both the rigorous application and the intense degree I hope to pursue by opening new, challenging discussions on previously intimidating topics, such as fields of literary criticism. Not only have our meetings deepened and confirmed my love for reading and exploring Literature, but his constant encouragement has allowed me to see myself as a potential Cambridge graduate, even following into the competitive field of publishing; ambitions which would not have been so assured without my Zero Gravity experience.

They aren’t helpful

Zero Gravity has really provided an eye-opening experience on various fronts in terms of the application process and understanding university through the differing online webinars and meetings. Furthermore, my mentor has been extremely insightful into what I should include in my personal applications for law at university, informing me on student life and finance advice, in addition to providing aid for writing my personal statement, to which I found the most beneficial.

Amazing website helping me with physics

The companies dedication to improving access and their work surrounding social mobility always makes me smile. It's that ethos that gives me the drive to continue to help in the fight to give students the opportunities I lacked growing up in higher education via the platform and in my respective space

I’ll be studying Public Relations at UAL, a course I’ve been interested in for years. I’ve already gained experience in the world of PR through volunteering to market school events at my sixth form, but this year will be a major financial struggle for me moving to London.

I had a great experience with Zero gravity - I received great advice on my application for Law to Oxford and also general advice on University itself. I particularly though that the sessions on how to choose your university were beneficial.
