Got a conditional for the L100 -

Offer - A*AA (with A* in Maths and A in Economics)
GCSE - 3A*, 6A, B, C (no language)
Predicted Grades - A*A*A*A (Maths, English Lit, Economics, Further Maths)
Received - 25th October

Guy at an open day said that most applicants need at least 5A* at GCSE to stand a chance, so don't worry if yours aren't exceptional. Just make sure the personal statement is great and the predicts are strong :smile:.

Congratulations guys! I applied for L100 Economics on the 12th October and still haven't received a reply, starting to worry about my chances, any advice?

You should not be worried at all! Sure you have a great chance, as long as you have a solid predicted grades, and gcse grades! Don’t panic! It’ll come!!
Hi guys, I think my application is relatively strong apart from my AS further maths UMS, I got a C in my decision Maths module ( I did fine in other modules and got an A overall). Do you think I would still stand a chance with this terrible D1 score?
(My predicted grades are 3A* and an A in EPQ plus A in both AS Maths and Further Maths. I got 6A*4A1B in my GCSE)

Congratulation guys for your offer!I sent my app on 13/10 but didn't hear anything yet. I'm so worried because have no GCSE having studied in a Italian school. I have only good grades from my Italian school and an IB predicted of 42 with 7 in math, physics, and Chem HL and a 6 in Eco HL. Do you know anyone who had received an offer with no GCSE in the past year? Thanks

Hiya!
Sorry I have not yet come across anyone without the gcse’s... but i’m sure UCL and other uni’s will consider people who have some sort of equivalent qualifications, which i’m guessing in your case you have from your Italian education... also your IB prediction looks great! So you have a good chance...
Thanks

HEY! I just got my offer! (IB kid from the land of Tims and maple syrup). I was predicted 44 - HL Math (7), HL History (7) HL Econ (7), SL Chem (6), SL Eng Lit (7), SL French B (7). I also had a bunch of cool co-curriculars/extra-curriculars I talked about.

Now, fingers crossed an LSE acceptance will come in! Super hyped I can study in the UK!!

In my UCL portal, it still says ' currently processed by admissions' but my UCAS Track has updated? I got the email from UCAS Track first at four ish today so I went on Track.
