Inside Oxford - Oliver Carter

Step through the gates of the world's most famous university - no interview required.Oxford may be centuries old, shrouded in tradition, and surrounded by myth, but what is it actually like on the inside? Drawing on hidden histories and stories passed down through generations of students, Inside Oxford explores the whole ecosystem - the colleges and their rivalries, the teaching that made Oxford world famous, the big nights out, the bigger essays, the finances no one talks about, the scandals everyone talks about, and the strange, stubborn magic that keeps people falling in love with the university.Step into the shoes of a student on this witty, eye-opening, and deeply affectionate tour, guided by Oxford insider and viral creator, Oliver Carter, and The Secret Professor, an anonymous Oxford academic with nearly twenty years' experience of tutorials, committees, and college politics. Together, they chart the full arc of Oxford life: from nervous applicant to seasoned student to grad school survivor (or drop out...), revealing the tensions and triumphs that make the place unlike anywhere else.Whether you're a future applicant, a nostalgic alum, a curious visitor, or someone who has always wondered what really happens behind these ancient stone walls, this is the ultimate guide to the real Oxford.
