Last year I got rejected from LSE, UCL, Durham, Edinburgh and Cambridge
I got lovely feedback from Cambridge post-interview while LSE said my PS was rubbish, Durham said my grades were rubbish and UCL said my subject choices were rubbish... I was too ashamed to ask Edinburgh for feedback.

I hope this will make you feel a little bit better, you allready have an offer so there's no way you can fail to my level

I'm applying to two courses at SSEES, Russian Studies and German and Russian. What about you?

Hey

My friend who applied to UCL for English with a AAAA at AS and predicted grades of A*AAA was rejected last week

She applied for the Oxbridge deadline as well

Offer - Conditional for L100 Economics - A*AA.

I have just been given a rejection by UCL for economics. I have been predicted of getting four A* in A level and I got full marks in seven modules of my AS Level result.
I can't believe how competitive it is !

I think it clearly shows that grades are NOT the only thing UCL are looking for.. that's why there's the personal statement, the reference and sometimes an interview. Yes, economics is extremely competitive, but four A* predicted.. who can beat that? Looks like it's a strong personal statement that can get you in (in addition to a thousand As of course)

Anyone else applied for Politics and East European Studies?

me
and around 20 other people on this site.... kind of making me a little worried as there are only 20 places for PEES...

Haha crap
Is there a dedicated thread for this years applicants?
Have you heard from them yet? Also, if you dont mmkind saying - what AS grades and predictions do you have? (eyeing up the competition! )

There is a SSEES thread in the UCL section

I got 4 A's at AS, and am aiming to get 3A*'s at A2. However, school don't tell us what were predicted, and i've been told by some teachers they don't like predicting people A*'s ( last year my RS teacher gave no one an A* prediction even though 4 people ended up getting an A*) soo, in short- don't know what i'm predicted lol.

My PS statement is a bit rubbish, to be hons. I'm applying for Politics and Philosophy at a few other uni's- which meant my personal statement had a lot of emphasis on Philosophy. so, seeing as there is heavy competition- i doubt they will like me. However, in History we do Russian History, so i spoke about that and books i've read about the Soviet Union blah blah blah.

Hope that helps.

Ah, very impressive as I expected! I've put UCL and LSE (moreso) down as long-shots, I got AABB last year, and I'm predicted AAA/B i think but you never know!

i applied to LSE too!- for politics and Philosophy though.
you never know how things are going to turn out though... i just want to hear something. i submitted my application agessss ago. However, the first PEES is 12th January- according to the website. so doubt we will hear anything till end of UCL term. so, 17th December.

Got an offer for electronic and electrical engineering H601
