***official spring weeks 2013 thread***

Just narrowly missed my LSE offer, and ended up with AAB. Is there still any point applying for a spring week internship with these grades and attendance at a non-target University, or will my application get canned at the first round?

International Business, Finance and Econ at Manchester. Still waiting on two remarked Biology modules in the hope of the extra 4 UMS I need but I'm not hopeful. Still a good school I know, I just know how good LSE's rep is with I-Banking and financial services. Thanks for the encouragement though.

Dude take a gap year and reapply! LSE is a big big difference from Manchester. Also even if you do not get an offer from the great uni's the gap year will allow you to gain work experience and travel. Something which will help you in the future, especially if you get into LSE or another top uni second time around.

I've considered it, but it seems risky applying again after getting insufficient grades first time round. From the LSE website:

"Generally, our Admissions Tutors prefer applicants to have achieved their exam grades in the first sitting. Whilst you are welcome to re-apply again in the next Admissions cycle, you should note that your application may be at a disadvantage to those who have achieved their results in one examination year."

Hmmm some big decisions ahead.

Anyone been able to apply for UBS Insights? It says applications are opened but the search doesn't find anything?

Are people putting down their university address for preferred contact address?
