dont look to much into the applicant to places ratio in terms of competitiveness. LSE get a lot more applicants for subjects who have slightly lower grades. Oxbridge pretty much get straight A candidates. If you have good grades you will have a decent chance

If your fourth AS subject is on the LSE 'blacklist' how much does it effect your chances of getting in? I know in their prospectus it says it doesn't really matter but is this really the case?



I think the blacklist beomes important when trying to selcet candidates for the more tough/competive courses. I mean staight economics compared with economics and geography is going t be MUCH tougher to get into. Hence, if you applying for the flagship LSE courses then even having one blacklist subject out of 3 a levels will affect you.

What do you think LSE's opinion is on the Economics and Business A-level course by Edexcel? I do it and from what I know of straight economics a-level its very very similar.


At the open day someone asked about the Econ and Business course by Edexcel - the lecturer said LSE considered it pretty much equal to straight economics.

Everything said in here are assumption. Noone really knows so I guess you should just relax wait for the reply. No matter what you get there are plenty of other good universities out there.

How about Music?
I have applied to LSE for Management and Management Sciences and I did Eco, Mat, Music and Art then I dropped Art in A2 level. Music is not on their black list, but would it not be good?
