LSE BSc Economics 2023

Ok it’s a tough choice between Warwick and LSE right ?

Not sure about the OP, but just in general? No, LSE’s the clear winner. Of course, there’s costs to factor in because Ldn is expensive, but apart from that not a difficult decision at all

yeah but as people said potentially contextual offers get given first .. I'm not sure given that I didn't get a contextual offer from any other unis?

Both my high school and my sixth form were eligible for contextual, my actual house wasn’t though .. but I’m not sure if they take into account stuff like Sutton trust

i haven't done it - didnt apply to oxbridge. but i was considering taking it just to make my application stronger until i realised it has no bearing at all. if my score was bad my application would look bad for no reason.

OP

Has anyone received any news letter or any other sort of email from LSE since the date applied ?
Cause other unis are in touch but no contact from LSE so is it something to worry ?
Is this only with me or you guys also haven’t received any emails ? Pls let me know.
Thank you.

So no emails after that ? Not even a promotional email or any news letter or anything else ?
Was that the only email received from lse ?

Although I'm not the person in question - I can confirm I haven't had any promotional material and I applied in September. The only email I did get was about filling in an applicant form a few days after I applied where I said I was taking the tmua. In January I received another email asking for my tmua score (only because there was a mess up on their end)
