Dreaming of Africa

Luke

I’m studying philosophy, art and history for my A levels at a state secondary school, and I have to make a decision soon about which university I want to apply to. If I were better at science, I would study zoology as I have always had an interest in animals. I might study anthropology (the study of different people around the world) as at least that will give me the chance to travel abroad. As soon as I finish my exams I’m really keen to go to Uganda. If I could find an animal conservation charity that would let me work for them, I would like to stay there for a few months. My dream is to work with gorillas one day.

Naomi

Although I spent three months revising for these exams, I’m still worried about the results, which are coming out soon. Unless I get A grades for all my subjects (maths, chemistry and biology), I won’t get into university to study medicine.

I’ve had to be really disciplined about everything and I’m not going to celebrate until I know I’ve been successful. I’m also working at an old people’s home as a volunteer because if I can get lots of practical experience, that will also improve my chances. When I graduate, I’m determined to work for the medical charity, Doctors Without Borders, and work in Africa.

Jake

It’s my last term at school and I’m taking my A level exams in a month. If I don’t pass them, I don’t really mind because I’m not very motivated to go on to get a degree. Seven years of secondary education is enough in my opinion!

If my mum wasn’t so strict about revision, I would be practising the guitar, which I love. When I finish my exams, I’m going to take up the drums. I’m doing geography, French and music and they’re all subjects that will be useful in the real world. My dream is to travel around French West Africa and to play and sing with Youssou N’Dour!
