The chance to explore the ideas of some of history&#8217;s best philosophers was a whole new opportunity.\u00a0So if you&#8217;re\u00a0studying A-Level at the moment,\u00a0and loving it, you&#8217;d have good reason to.\u00a0Despite this\u00a0though, I did find aspects of the course difficult, and sometimes doubted if it was for me as a result.\u00a0Thus, if you&#8217;re finding A-Level Philosophy tough, you might be in the same position.\u00a0Rest assured &#8211; university study is very differen<strong>t<\/strong>. In my own experience &#8211; having studied Philosophy at A-level under the general umbrella of Religious Studies \u2013 and in talking to others, I\u2019ve noticed similarities in how people studying at degree tended to have\u00a0found A-level difficult. While this is no means true for everyone, I\u2019ve noticed that most current Philosophy undergrads didn\u2019t find the content of their A-Level course that challenging. They absorbed the ideas with ease and were sometimes surprised at the seeming inability of fellow students to do the same. Rather, it was the <em>examination or teaching process <\/em>that they struggled with.<\/p>\n<p><em><u>A-Level Philosophy Exams<\/u><\/em><\/p>\n<p>Now, very few people enjoy exams. Some people find them easier than others, but I\u2019m yet to meet a person who relished that walk into the exam hall. And in Philosophy, this indifference (dare I say dislike?) to exams can be even more justified. After all, Philosophy is surely about <em>thinking deeply.<\/em> And trying to do so to a stopwatch can seem to miss the point a little. I for one found answering exam questions rather difficult: I ended up getting a \u2018U\u2019 on my mock paper&#8230;Hopefully a reassuring thought given that I\u2019m now studying a degree in the subject and doing (dare I say it) quite well! One issue I had with the structure of my exams was that you got marked for both explanation (explaining a particular philosopher\u2019s theory) and criticising it (finding all the ways they may have actually not been as right as they thought they were).<\/p>\n<p>This second part seemed to come quite naturally to me. Some (my Philosophy teacher, for instance) might say it was \u2018<em>irritatingly too natural<\/em>\u2019 as it would lead me to find a hole in a new idea before she\u2019d even got to fully explaining it. I can only apologise. Yet the first part proved trickier. Because grasping the ideas was often intuitive to me, I\u2019d find I would fail to explain them in sufficient detail \u2013 assuming the reader would already understand things as well as I did and so little more needed to be said.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re in this situation, <em>don\u2019t worry! <\/em>While doing well on your Philosophy exams is obviously really important (they are the thing that will partly determine your entry to uni) struggling with them for this reason shouldn\u2019t suggest that you\u2019re not competent enough to study at degree level. If anything, it suggests you\u2019re <em>too <\/em>competent for <em>A-level<\/em>. And while it\u2019s never advisable to get cocky about this kind of thing, at least take some solace in the knowledge that, if you do well enough to get yourself to uni, you\u2019ll likely feel refreshed by the freedom to explore these topics more deeply.<\/p>\n<p><u>How Does Teaching at Uni Compare to Degree?<\/u><\/p>\n<p>Another way uni differs from A-Level is the teaching style. One difference is in the level of attention given to each idea or philosopher. A-Level tends to be taught in broad brush-strokes; you get a collage of ideas from across the ages, but you spend relatively little time drilling down on the details. Uni is different. Rather than covering a handful of philosophers and a couple of their ideas in any given week, at university you may spend an entire week, term or course just on one philosopher \u2013 perhaps just on one of their ideas. Initially this can seem surprising; however once you do it, you realise just how much depth there is to be uncovered of any given philosopher. I personally can remember seeing that a lot of my \u2018criticisms\u2019 of certain philosophers were actually misunderstandings of their ideas, borne of the way they\u2019d been oversimplified in 6<sup>th<\/sup> form.<\/p>\n<p>Another way the teaching differs is the level of freedom you get as an undergrad. One aspect of this is that you will be expected to <em>think for yourself. <\/em>I think this is one of the most valuable parts of the subject and it should be embraced as such! While having less input might be a tad daunting at first, you\u2019ll soon relish the opportunity \u2013 particularly if you found A-level a little restrictive (don\u2019t worry, it basically is). What\u2019s more, if you\u2019re struggling, it\u2019s not as though you\u2019re left to fend for yourself. Your lecturers will have email addresses and office hours (times when they\u2019re available to any student who wants to talk)\u00a0and I highly recommend you make use of both. When and where else are you going to get the chance to talk to the people who\u2019ve spent their lives thinking about the kinds of issues you\u2019ll be grappling with?!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If\u00a0A-Level is difficult \u2013 is a Degree Still for Me?
