Yes, Jehst is my favourite, Skinny Man, Rhyme Asylum, Kyza, Foreign Beggars, LDZ, Braintax :biggrin:

Yup looks like I stumbled upon a UKHH head. I like all of them but never heard of LDZ. My favourites are Jehst, Lowkey, Akala, Klashnekoff, (now) Task Force, and English Frank.
Have to admit, disappointed with how little the UKHH scene is, but Mic Righteous and Kingpin are defo great prospects!

What was LSE like guys? The campus, the people, location, etc etc.

The campus, well... what campus? :tongue:

You couldn't really call it a campus, more a cluster of buildings. If you're looking for a campus university then this isn't it. The buildings are new(ish) compared to UCL, but they're pretty much standard London buildings.

As you may already know, LSE has many international applicants, especially Asians. This was reflected in the talks that I attended, where I walked in and saw the majority of heads bore black hair :biggrin:

Of course, this is a good thing as I'd love to meet people from all around the globe, and LSE is as international as it gets.

Location wise, it's London so obviously it'll be convenient going out and such. I can't really remember whereabouts the main buildings were situated but it took around 15 minutes from Waterloo to get there.

Hope this helps :smile:

Thanks for all the info, +rep :smile:

Yeah I have heard a lot about it being highly-chinese oriented, but that's not a problem! :p:

I couldn't help but notice that you went to UCL as well.. which did you prefer out of the two? If you got offers from both (assuming you've applied), which would you choose?

What makes you say that? Even if you get a place for pure economics at London School of Economics, you'd still choose UCL? Fair enough I guess :smile:

I would be extremely lucky if I got an offer from either one; I'm not really expecting an offer so that hasn't really crossed my mind :colondollar:

Thanks dude, but tbh I'm waiting on Oxford, and failing that UCL. LSE doesn't really appeal to me as an overall place, the atmosphere is too workmanlike!

Fair enough! Although, for me personally as I probably won't get into Cambridge, If I recieve an LSE and UCL offer I'd take LSE. I'm willing to bite the bullet in terms of the atmosphere, Chinesefest and poor teaching (or so they say) for the LSE name.
