Guys I have 3 A*s predicted but no FM, do u think I have a good chance of getting an offer? I feel that I have a very strong personal statement with a lot of relevant experience in data science, but I feel like it’s very unlikely for me to get an offer with no FM

It's fine. 3 A*'s are excellent predictions; it's all that matters. It would be great if you could show your passion for maths through data science. Could you let me know if you applied already?

It is 1:25, and it’s like 65 to 35(international: home), but there were international applicants, so it’s biased.

I am hoping to apply soon, in 1 week. Applying EFDS imperial, UCL and LSE data science, bath mathematics statistics and data science, City of London mathematics and data science. Predictions are A*A*A*AA. Where else do you apply?

Thank you, I appreciate it. Your choices are solid. Did you talk just about Econ in your PS? A*'s(Russian, Maths, Economics) A's(physics FM)

I talked mostly about economics (60 %), but i also mentioned a lot of data science (around 25%) and how it is relevant to modern economics. I did a bit on finance but since only imperial and bristol have finance in their courses for me i only mentioned a bit, around 10%. The rest was just about extracurriculars/hobbies
