I know this was sarcastic but the latter part of your sentence holds some truth.


The UMS aren't perfect, but I'm pretty sure they're good enough

Yep Y12 - I've got 3 experiences so far under my belt and hopefully another 2 or 3 more within the next year
I've been offered an interview for an outreach scheme but if that doesn't work out i might weigh out my options and see where it takes me (basically if all else fails economics it is) 😁

Can anyone tell me when I can expect to be told whether or not I'm getting an interview for Econ at King's Cambridge?

I applied to jesus and they said that they send interview letters in the 2nd and 3rd weeks of November and I'm guessing that they're all similar in their reply times, so you might hear tomorrow mate! haha

On their application information page it says "[h="2"]Invitation to interviews in Cambridge
(information for 15-30 Nov)"[/h]
so I'm guessing that is the range of dates you should expect to hear about getting an interview or not.

You underestimate the competition at LSE. They could well be good enough it depends on the rest of their application, but I've seen people with incredible scores get rejected.

Well that just demonstrates that they care more about the personal statement than having stellar UMS.
I'm now an expert on the current oil price and it's economic effect
