i think this is quite harsh. 2 a stars and an a is not average at all- even more so considering that the person you're talking about is a contextual student. obviously lse is competitive, but they will hold everything in light of socio-economic context. i definitely think the person has a chance, but my advice would be to prepare for the worst but simultaneously hope for the best. what will be will be! it's out of their control now :smile:

would u say they hold ps to a heavy weight?

lse are definitely lovers of the ps and hold it in high regard, so you definitely want it to be very strong. obviously, they will view your application as a whole too, so it will be one of the factors going into their decisions. good luck! i've also applied to lse, but for law :smile:
