Episode Synopsis "Episode 2: Hit Pause: Unexpected Gap Years"

Welcome back to the University Podcast! In this second episode I talk to Georgia, a second year who took a gap year after not getting the A Level grades that she expected. We discuss managing the expectations of both A Levels and University, unpacking what happens when you don't get into University first time round and how for Georgia, taking a gap year was the best thing that could have happened to her. Georgia also gives some great advice for if you are ever in the same situation as her. This is the second episode in the podcast series which aims to tackle the topics related to University that you won't always hear about, discussing challenging or difficult situations and looking at how to overcome them.
