Currently they are ABC in Physics, Maths and Economics, but i have mocks next week which my school says can help your predcitions, so im hoping to get economics to a B, and hoefully maths to an A. Kings admissions guy said I'd get an offer with AAB( A in maths and physics). The only problem is that I got a C in maths last year because I messed up C2, so even if i get an A* in these mocks idk if it would get me an A predicition. So i could be left with ABB. But like you said Physics was in clearing last year, which I was a bit suprised by, its really hard to say whats gonna happen this time. After these mocks, if i dont get that A in maths, Im gonna speak to them and see what happens.
Ps. You know when you said that Physics places last year werent filled, what makes you think it would fill up this year?


I did not say I think it would fill. What I was trying express is that nationally in the 2014/2015 application cycle the number of applicants for physics fell significantly/ measurably compared with the 2013/2014 admission cycle. Therefore in this cycle 2015/2016 it is likely physics applications in general will rise compared with last year. Making competition for places in general harder than last year when person went to kings with an A and BB.

Idk about Geography, but I applied for Biochemistry more than a month ago and no feedback yet. I have a global average of 98% (with 100% in Maths, Physics, Chemistry and Biology) (I am an EU student, so it might be because of that).

Congrats! I've applied for the same course and sent my application off on Thursday. What subjects do you take and when did you send yours off?


Hey, apologies for the late reply! I sent off my application on 4 October and got my offer from King's on the 8th. Still haven't heard back from any of my other four. My subjects are Economics, English Literature, History, and Maths. What about you? :smile:
Does anyone know if the offer holders day is just for those who put KCL as their first choice?
