A bit of humility might go a long way! There are anxious people here awaiting news! Sorry, but just had to say.

i didnt realise they were all for maths. i think just one of them is...

What day did they all get their 2 week email on again?


Yes. There are 5 waiting from maths and we all got our 2 week email on 7th October which is a bit strange as none of us have heard anything.

I dont think humility is required. Had all these people been rejected i guess humility...but they have just not had an email. would make u worry a little, but it doesnt affect ur application...your application is still being checked, youve neither been made an offer nor a rejection, just like the rest of us. i think u need to calm down a bit. youre literally worrying over nothing...i got my imperial acknowledgement email like a week after everyone else (and some had 3 by then), i was worried a bit and thats natural, but it didnt require humility on other peoples parts...

I'm concerned now!!! I haven't had it yet and my 2 weeks ended today :s-smilie:


I think it might be because I applied for Econ History? The department is considerably smaller than the main History department so they probably have more applicants to go through! Don't worry, there are many many other people who haven't heard back yet!

LSE is somewhat notorious for the lack of social life, which I'm sure is a complete myth that has been spread by people who are quite introverted anyway, but, what's your view on it?

Also, how do you find the teaching? Do you feel as if professors are approachable?

What are other students like also? LSE is a world class university and I'm sure there must be a few people who think they're the be all and end all to their subject. Is the atmosphere quite relaxed around campus/buildings?

Quite a few questions there, I'm sorry :s-smilie: Studying Econ History at LSE is quite an aspiration for me and I really want to be able to have a somewhat 'feel' of the place.

THANKS :biggrin:!

I'm also biting my nails, my 5 weeks are over in about a week. Fingers crossed.

EDIT: I'm applying for straight economics.

You'll be one of the first to tell us what happens :eek:

IR is heavily oversubscribed so no surprise they are slower than other departments.

I completely agree.
Is your admissions tutor Umi Chilemba?

I applied for IR and History, still no update!

My admissions tutor is Ruth.

Seems as if my course (Econ History) is the least competitive but it still has 8:1 applicants or places which terrifies me :frown: also utterly confused why a LSE course is only AAB!

I think I'll wait and see what happens to you then - i.e. whether you get a decision or not. Please keep us informed :smile:

When did you send off your application/receive the 2-week email? Also, are you a UK applicant or International?

Bit of basic question, but I was wondering what exactly management was? and what your studies revolve around?
Also, are there any documentaries, videos, books that could help provide me with a basic understanding of management? If so, which would you recommend?
Thank you!
