LSE entry 2015

Congratulations! If you don't mind me asking when did you apply? Have you completed your A levels already?

What do you think happened?

They said my personal statement didn't show focus or commitment to economics

I'm applying post A level so my A2 grades are A*A*AA,I wrote a little about economic history but predominately my personal statement was more leaned towards pure economics because all of my other choices are pure econ. How about you? These 2/8 week notifications are agonising! Id rather just know the outcome at the end!

Hi there

You will have more than enough time- all 3 universities are within (approximately) a 30 minute walk from each other.

If you're not to keen on walking all 3 universities are accessible by "the Tube" (the train service operating in London) and by local bus services.

It would be possible to visit all three universities in one day.

Thanks for your reply! Do you know whether you can just enter the university buildings and have a look around?

I'm self teaching FM this year, and honestly, once you do FP1 and FP2 you mights as well do the whole a level
S2 and S3 took me about a week, S4 a week and M2 a few days whereas FP1 and 2 took me like 5 weeks in total 2, obviously taking up more time
I didn't bother trying to learn D1 literally what is even going on in that module haha

Funnily enough, since this email I've finished FP1! Haha I'm going to do FP2 over the next few weeks before Christmas and then I'm going to take up S3 and S4 since I'm focussing on the stats route. How did you find them?

FP2 was hard, mainly cuz I hadn't done either c3 or c4 when I started haha
S3 was straightforward, like S2 but a bit longer
S4 was longer than S3 and harder, but more pure maths so it's easier in that sense
Also FP2, S3 and S4 didn't have revision guides so I finally had to use the big textbook to learn them haha but overall they were fine you'll be okay haha

How are you find the time to get through them so quickly?! I only have one day a week where I can do ALL of my school work since I have a part (full) time job

Hi, is there anyone applying for Philosophy, Logic and Scientific Method? If yes, what are your grades and when did you apply? I appplied on the 9th October, got 12 weeks, 2 weeks and 8 weeks emails (the 8-week one on the 23 rd October, though). Or maybe you happen to know someone who has already been offered a place?

Just got an offer for PPE!

I am! Applied 13th October. Already completed A Levels last year A*A*A, so I'm applying to better unis this time round haha. Yeah I got the 2 week then the 8 week emails. Not heard of anyone with an offer yet

Oh my god really!?! What are your grades, and what is the offer?

Congrats btw!

The offer is A*AA, with the A* in Maths, and the 3 can't include Further Maths. It was a great birthday present! I'm predicted A*A*A*AA, and got AAAAB last year.

Thank you! Where else have you applied?
