Would King's be lenient if I didn't put them as my firm choice?

Hi,

I understand that no one here will be able to give me an absolute answer on this. But I just want to ask for your general opinion. If I didn't put King's as my firm choice (only insure them), would it affect their decision to take me (in the case when I miss grades for both my firm and insurance choice).

Thank you for any opinion :biggrin:

why aren't you putting them as your first choice? it would sound 'weird' to say "Kings College (One of the world's best universities') is my insurance choice.

Oh I see. It's because I am firming LSE. However, both LSE and King's ask for the same grades so I am deciding whether it would worth taking the risk putting Kings as an insurance choice or go for different unis which require lower grades.
The problem is I really like both LSE and King's though.
