just looked up to see what my application has been up to - still at pending decision which it has been from about 3 weeks after I applied. It says the department is Economics & Finance, and yet I applied to modern history & economics, I know they're both in the faculty of arts, but this would suggest it's just being looked at by economics and finance, and not history:s-smilie:

Weighted GPA highest is 4.5 I think

Unweighted highest is 4.0

I suspect it just says that because the degree is officially "MA(Hons) Economics and Modern History" and they get listed by which subject comes first, technically giving that department overall 'responsibility' so to speak. When I graduated, for example, it was with everyone doing German because my degree was "German and Modern History". I wouldn't worry too much about it - good luck!
St Andrews will happily except an inferior international applicant over an RUK applicant......they need the money lol

Well ain't that the truth! Although EU applications down so that's good news for them as they will still wish to keep offers proprortionate within the Scots/Eu offer rate within the caps - I assume!
Got rejected for maths yesterday. Scottish student. 5 A's and predicted 3A's. I got 97% in Higher Maths. Personal statement and reference were both glowing with many mathematic extra curriculars. St Andrews are definitely either randomly choosing Scottish students due to the high amount of people that applied or favouring international students due to the fees. I blame the Scottish government.
Good Luck to anyone still to hear back! There is still hope.
