“
Upgrade Education put me into contact with my mentor, without whom I would not have been able to get this far. It’s hard to find someone who studies the same subject and at the same university that you want to apply to, so Upgrade Education made that easier. I had constant support throughout the entire admission process and was able to find my own rhythm whilst knowing I have someone to go to if I got stuck. After all, Upgrade Education is about showing you how to do it and then letting you fly. My mentor became a model to look up to and that has certainly motivated me.
