What we cover in calls?
Applications in philosophy and theology are hyper competitive. To illustrate, some of the PhD programs had an acceptance rate of under 2%. For this reason, Philosophy Circle breaks down each part of the application process to give you the best chance to succeed either in your undergraduate or postgraduate applications.
Applications often require personal statements and other related essays, like written work. We work through these pieces line by line, giving you feedback on structure, depth, and content, while maintaining your voice.
Preparation for Oxbridge interviews in philosophy and theology. We challenge you based on your personal statement as well as general themes in philosophy and theology which often come up in interviews.
We teach you the skills required to approach the subject test as well as exam strategy to make sure you are well prepared to sit the paper.
We guide you with course/ subject selection, timeline planning, advice on reading, application strategy and more to make sure that you create a competitive and coherent application narrative.
How Consulting Calls Work?
Step 1: Book a Call
Select a time and tell us your goals. We will arrange over email a plan for the call as well as what material and content to cover.
Step 2: Preparation
Tutor and client both prepare for the call. The client should think of any questions they want to ask. The tutor reviews any material that the client wants feedback on.
Step 3: The Call
We cover what has been agreed upon as well as send through, after the call, written notes and summaries.
FAQs
Q1: Do you work with students worldwide?
Yes. All of our services are delivered online and we regularly work across time zones. We frequently work with churches and clients in Hong Kong, where Joshua is based outside of term, as well as have a large audience in the UK and US through our YouTube platforms.
Q2: Can you guarantee admissions outcomes?
No. While we have a team of expert tutors, we cannot guarantee any admissions outcomes. We focus on preparing you thoroughly for the admissions process, working on strategy, writing, and interview preparation if needed such that your portfolio is as strong as it can be. However, final decisions rest with the universities.
Q3: How do you prepare for interviews?
Interviews are often either about your personal statement or about general themes in your subject. For this reason, tutors ask you questions both about the content found within your personal statement as well as broad questions on different themes in philosophy. The goal of such questions aren’t for testing your knowledge, as those are not what Oxbridge undergraduate interviews look for. Rather, they help you work through your ideas with clarity and precision.
Q4: Do you provide post-graduate admissions advice?
The team at Philosophy Circle is made up of both undergraduate and postgraduate students in the world’s top Philosophy and Theology programs. We also have connections with professors at some of these universities. We use these knowledge and connections to ensure that any one applying, both prospective undergraduates and postgraduates, can get good advice in their admissions.
