Do any of you guys have any ideas which halls you are going to choose, which are the best in terms of travelling, social? I missed a chance at seeing the rooms at the open day last year, but have heard they aren't that great :/

Oh!! Can I ask you a couple of questions?
How are you finding the course, what subjects/topic areas are you studying/how is the workload? And obviously it's LSE so the quality must be good, but how is the teaching and extra support and help with assignments/work?

I am enjoying my course, and I'll enjoy it even more in my second year when I have more choice over my direction.

Currently I am studying (lent term):

LSE100 - A module all first years do, to be honest it is a bit of pain
EC102 (Economics B) - Not too difficult and a lot of fun
GV101 (Political Science) - Very intuitive, a lot of reading but on interesting topics
GV100 (Political Theory) - Basically philosophy, my least enjoyable subjects but many people really enjoy the deep and important questions.
MA100 - More difficult than MA107 and had to ask my department for the switch to MA100. Very large workload and important not to fall behind! But I do enjoy maths in general.

The workload is huge!! It is manageable as long as you don't fall behind and there is still time to go out to clubs at least twice a week.

There is very little student support handed to you, but if you simply ask - your teachers will be willing to sit down 1 on 1 and talk through any problems you have in an "office hour'". The lecture quality varies greatly and put simply, the less quantitative the subject, the greater the lecture. Teaching quality is good and each teacher has a very different style, some will suit your needs better the others.
Applied for Economics with Statistics: Required grades AAA

Hi Jamie

Out of curiosity, does that rule apply to other modules/courses other than the ones related to Govt and Economics? :smile:


I want to emphasise that this is a HUGE generalisation and there are outliers (MA103 and GV100 to name two off the top of my head) that break this rule. However, if I am correct with this trend, YES this applies to most modules.
