bsc economics at kcl

i just got a conditional offer from kcl for bsc economics but i got some concerns regarding the offer since the course is really new. it has a high entry requirement and the uni seems to be prestigious and the location is actually great. any of you also got the offer and will firm it? and if you are taking the course, what made u choose kcl for economics and how is the course and uni life?

Hello there friend I also received an offer from KCL for Economics and have literally the same concern as you and I need to pick between that or UCL as I have offers from both with the same requirements.

i think we are going through the same thing... there is very little information about the course even on kcl's webpage. it's like nobody is attending the course.

It's not that. The course started at 2017 and that's why there is no information. We are literally going to be the 2nd year applying and doing this course. What did they ask you mate in terms of requirements?

yea and i can't find anyone mentioning the course. a*aa including a in maths. i think they ask for the same grades for you too?

Exactly the same applies to me, and that's the only difference between UCL and KCL. UCL wants A* in maths. I am confident I can get the grades. They probably give out offers with the same requirements to everyone

then i guess you are choosing ucl right? cuz the course at kcl is really new

Hey.I am studying Economics BSc KCL and it is totally a ****. By no means you can study financial or management modules, such as Principles of Finance, Corporate Finance, Accounting and so on, these modules are not available to Economics students. Lot's of ********, you will gain all the knowledge that you would gain from this course just on the most rudimentary universities offering BSc Economics. Not worth your money, time, effort and grades.

Aside from the fact the thread is nearly 10 months old and the prior posters will have made their choices about which course to firm their offers for, and the fact both have been inactive for several months now, I would point out some people applying to an economics degree might actually be doing so with the intention of studying economics, rather than using it as a stepping stone to banking and finance. In that frame, your point about students not being able to take modules from the management course is kind of irrelevant, since their Economics & Management degree has been around for quite a while (it was from this that the single honours course spun off from - obviously it would be pointless to have done this if they were just going to have the students take all those same modules anyway).
