EU applicant, so no predicted grades.
However, my teacher mentioned in the reference she expects me to get 9.5 at the final exams ( 9.0 is the LSE entry requirement)

Yeah, it would be my around my 10th week including the Christmas break, I got the 8 week email on the 21st November. I'm surprised I made it this far tbh.. my GCSE'S are poor, AAABBCCCG, but for AS I got AA (Maths + EPQ), so it must be my personal statement getting me this far :/.... what about you??
Applying for A&F too, applied at the end of October and on the 8 week email

Just got rejected. I was kind of expecting it since I don't do Maths.

Good luck to everyone else!

Yes, but from what I've seen that is their standard rejection reason.
Most likely it was due to the fact that I don't study maths and 90% of applicants do study it..

Hi,
To be honest I was not aware of a BSc Finance course at LSE until I checked UCAS just now? Did they add it this year or something? I guess the major differences is that it is harder to get in (A*AA) and more focused on finance, and finance modules at LSE are a bit of a joke (they are insanely difficult). I'd say stay clear of doing pure finance at LSE.
