Political Economy/Politics Entrants 2015

Hey,

I hear very little on here regarding Political Economy and Politics applicants at King's College London, so I've decided to create a thread.

I applied for Political Economy in October, with A*A*A predicted with 4As at AS.

What have you guys heard and anyone got anything more than a confirmation?

Jamie

I've also applied to King's for Political Economy! I've also heard nothing since I got my confirmation. Nice to know I'm not the only one. :smile:

Yup. Applying with AAAA at AS level and an A*AA prediction. I hope we both get in! :smile: Is King's your first choice? Also, what A levels are you doing?

My AS levels were Maths, Economics, Biology and Chemistry where I got 4As and then continued with Maths(Predicted A*), Economics(Predicted A*) and Biology(Predicted A).

What about you?

Interesting - I did Maths, Economics, History and English Literature and dropped English Literature. I really hope King's will actually let us know soon - they said 'within 6 weeks' and I applied in early October. Where else have people applied? I applied to do PPE at Oxford (but the TSA went so badly... oh so badly :frown: ), Government and Economics at LSE and hold offers from Birmingham (Economics and Political Science) and Manchester (Economics and Politics).

Yes, I'm not sure what it will involve though, I think I would go to the offer holder day if I get a place instead.
