My university application journey
I didn't know exactly what I wanted, but I pretty much like maths and science so went for a general engineering course. I initially thought I would major in Chemical but ended up doing AI instead, so pretty big change! I think that in general A level content can be a bit different to university content even for same subject, so universities are increasingly offering a general (unspecified at least) majors within some scope -- something I think you should consider as well if you are unsure!
Application wise is quite straightforward although if you are not doing NS doing it together with your JC2 can add a bit of workload, so would recommend starting early!
Life after NYJC
Great! A lot of independence but not too much responsibility (still a lot though). It's a really good experience seeing the other side of the world.
My Future Plans
I'm staying on for PhD, not sure what comes after yet.
