Hey I'm applying to Economics to the same places as you, except I'm going for LSE instead of Imperial. For the supporting documentation that UCL sent you asking for your maths (+ further maths) grades, did you/ have you put down UMS scores as well as your grade achieved because it doesn't stipulate that you should put it down?

I put down my UMS down and not my grade achieved because they can tell my grade from my ums.
