For those who sit the UGAA and are made offers, what are those offers generally conditional upon?

From what I understand, the UGAA is just another measure of your application. If I get through the paper-sift, I will need to sit the UGAA. I imagine that this will form part of the holistic review of my application which if successful, would be conditional on me achieving X grades, with X being dependent on how they view me, and how much they are willing to compromise for me.

All assumptions though!

I still haven't heard back... I applied on 13th Jan and I haven't received the initial assessment email yet, I think it's too late to get an invitation but I'll keep my fingers crossed

I just got my further assessment email saying:

'In the initial review of your application, I identified you as an applicant who could potentially be required to complete our Undergraduate Admissions Assessment (UGAA). LSE requires applicants studying certain qualifications to complete the UGAA before a potential offer could be made. Only the most competitive applicants will be invited to sit the assessment and will usually be notified by late February.'

This is probably analysing too far, but by saying 'could potentially be required' is it possible I won't have to sit the UGAA and still have the chance of getting an offer??

And why does it say late February as the UGAA is March 6th? Mine said the same.

I think they will just make things faster and we'll receive decision in the middle of February, so we can arrange things. At least I hope so, it would be absurd to get notified later with only one week to "prepare" for UGAA :biggrin:

I also got my further assessment email :smile:

Quick update from me, got my UGAA invitation via email today to sit in in March. Absolutely terrified of the thought of the Maths section, even if it is only GCSE standard for my course (Law).

Hopefully you guys also receive some good (scary) news shortly!

To those who have the test coming up, drop me a PM. I'd be interested in sharing some thoughts about revision and such in an effort to achieve the best I can!
