My Background

I received my primary education in French at the Lycee Francais Charles de Gaulle. a french institution located in South Kensington. There. I learned many subjects in conjunction which was great for my general education. I also learned to work hard as school days were long and homework was plentiful.

At 16 years old, one year before I would have taken the Baccalaureate exam, I decided to leave the Lycee and study A-levels at St Francix Xavier Sixth Form College. I could concentrate on the subjects I loved: Maths and Computer Science. I really enjoyed the teaching during my 2 years in St Francis and I came out of it with good grades.

For university, the University of Manchester came to be my choice. I have spent 4 wonderful years there studying Mathematics. I have just finished very successfully though I have not yet officially graduated. I expect a result above 80% and I will have an official certificate by early August.

I am now taking a year to do some independent work and research. After the next year is over, I have options to go for a PhD, gravitate towards a more corporate career or even work
independently. I am not yet decided.
