Has anyone got Exeter for Economics?


I haven't applied there but a couple guys I know got A*A*A offers which is a bit steep, guess they must be swamped with applicants this year

Think these guys were A*AA predicts, just shows you it is not worth over inflating your predicts though in case someone asks you to get them though. No one will go if its 2A* though all those guys will have offers from Cambridge or Warwick that are lower
Hi, I was wondering about the offers.
If i got an offer from bristol for bsc economics and finance for aaa
Is it possible to get accepted with a*ab instead?

Thankyou! :smile:

It took my school 2 weeks to write a reference so I applied pretty late as well

I'm concerned about the maths bit of my interview. I don't know if I should gear revision towards calculus or statistics

Hello, I got an offer from UCL straight economics, but I new regret having applied to Bath and Warwick (I got offers from them asking me for the same grades as UCL), and think I should have applied to both the UCL straight Econ and the one year abroad.

Do you guys think I can email UCL, explaining my situation, and asking them to also consider me for the one year abroad program, or something like that ?

Thanks!


Congrats on your offer! Just wondering what are your stats? I've applied for both at UCL.
