MYP 5 – DP 1: Career Guidance Evening featuring two online sessions on Wednesday, 30th November 2022:

  • UK University Summer Trip Info Session (at 18:00)

What’s it like to live and study in London or Cambridge? In the last week of June 2023 H-FARM students will have the opportunity to visit 5 universities in London (King’s College, City, UAL, Imperial, Regent’s, LSE), as well as visit Cambridge University. Students will meet alumni and admissions officers and learn how to prepare UK applications. They will also immerse themselves in London’s bustling life, from attending a West End musical to visiting the London Eye and the Natural History Museum. The session will discuss the outline of the trips and feature Valdo Academics experts’ advice on whether it is still worth studying in post-Brexit Britain, for whom, and why.

  • SAT Info Session (at 18:30)

Keen to study at Bocconi? Interested in the USA? Fascinated by European business schools? For all of these opportunities, you might need to prepare for an exam called SAT over the next 6 months – yes, even if applications seem far away and occur in your last year of IB. Join us for an information session where we will explain what the SAT exams are, how to prep, and why it is important to prep now if the exams are relevant to you. We will explain how to study autonomously for the SAT, pointing you to the most reputable freely available resources and leading books on the SAT, as well as present the school’s offer via our partner Valdo Academics.

* This virtual event will start at 17:45 with an introduction by our Career Guidance Counselor Ms Ayana Fabris. Please join us for one or both sessions at this Webex link (meeting number: 2732 065 8680; meeting password: Summer2023).
