Our founder and director, Nathaniel McCullagh, was featured in The Spectator, discussing the rising use of AI in university applications.
"For private tutoring, it’s not a case of put money in, get a personal statement out. Tutors will help you (often through a long-term mentoring relationship), but they are not going to do it for you: unlike AI, they are not going to misrepresent anything you’ve done or haven’t done. A student using AI to write their personal statement is completely cheating themselves of that feeling of having achieved something: and the more they use it, the more they lose that sense of accountability."
