Haha, all is not lost Muij, I'm probably exaggerating my accademic prowess a bit much - you may well be far superior!! (after all your only your own toughest critic :biggrin:

)

My GCSEs were 8 A*s and an A* in a short course R.S...the rest were A's (one in SC ICT and Eng Lit)

My A-levels weren't stellar, I got 4As and a B: Math - A, (further maths got a B, but assuming that isn't cashed in :biggrin:

) Bio - A, Chem - A, Econ - A, Crit Think - B (OH LORDY :P)

Predictions: Maths - A* ; F Maths - A; Bio - A* ; Econ - A
2A*s, 2As....In the grand scheme of UCL....prettty average :frown:

They said my academia wasn't up to scratch but idk....

TSR ftw.

Maths, Econ, F maths are like the perfect A levels...

PLUS Biology

Still not good enough?

Penis.

Don't worry about rejections from UCL, they reject all sorts with amazing grades.

I applied there last year, and was rejected, although I have re-applied :smile:

Lol I had no idea UCL was this competitive. Did LSE already start sending out rejections as well?

Hahahaha, you're too kind dude :smile:

Don't woz about the GCSEs, plus if your school is bad, they will definitely take that into account - THEY MUST! Otherwise they are complete *insert swear word here*s. GOOD LUCK MUIJ!!)

I meant on a grand scale of things Glen :P THESE UCL CANDIDATES ARE MENTAL!! :'(

There is hope for us all - Plus there is always element of luck ofc :smile:

Hahaha Glen, I think they may be looking at AS predictions and stuff as well quite sternly...lots of people in my school got 3-4 A* predictions...so I on paper I am the interior candidate in most cases :P

I think LSE might be sending rejection already....but very sparsely because a lot candidates who receive offers will end up rejecting them...so you may effectively be on a long waiting list :smile:

Goood luck eveeerrryyy booodddyyyy! :smile:

How did your TSA go?

I think the Multiple Choice section went fairly well.
I completed all the questions with around 2 minutes of spare time. And there were just 1 or 2 questions I had no clue about.

I don't think I did very well on the writing section though. I chose that technology topic and am now feeling I ought to have used more power words and the works. I think I wrote it in pretty much too basic English. :frown:
