I'm planning on applying to university this year as a mature student (I'm 20, will be 21 by the time I enrol, not sure if that counts) and need to get some serious reading done within a month, preferably two weeks, to get something into my personal statement. The university I'm aiming for is UCL and I want to do philosophy but their grade boundaries are too high for me considering I flunked college to get high instead.
My understanding of philosophy is pretty basic, my main introduction being Sophie's World and from there exploring Schopenhauer, Kant, Nietzsche, which I guess is alright but I don't think it would set me above the rest for a uni like UCL. Considering some of you are academics, or very intelligent, could anyone recommend me some decent reading that could help me.
