    Anyone else worried about not getting that A* (or 7 for the IB students) in Maths - assuming it's part of your offer of course ? :P
    Too right! :L Just gotta sweat it out C3/4 sweat sweat sweat sweat sweat.

    Just a quick question...

    I received my UCAS Track change notification on Friday @5pm but haven't heard anything directly from LSE as such yet.

    I know people have mentioned welcome packs etc but did people get an email from LSE too, giving information about the open day and stuff?

    Maybe I'm being impatient but I'm still worried that I was awarded a place by mistake hehe (I have no confidence!)

    Hope everyone's enjoying this sun!

    I got an email from LSE (about 2-3 hours after receiving the offer on Track) inviting me to the open day on the 3rd of April. The subject of the email was "An invitation to our Visit Day for Offer Holders at LSE". Hope tha helps :/

    Better start studying to avoid complete and utter embarrassment

    Hey all,
    I will be firming LSE for Econ L101 and am happy to make friends now before we get their.

    On a side note: does anyone have any idea how easy it is to get my own room with a shower and toilet (does an en-suite include both shower and toilet) ? If so how much are they a week ?

    Feeling very lucky to be able to post in this thread right now, anyone who hasn't been keeping up with the applicant's thread, today was a massacre.
