Good morning,
I am an Italian student and I will have my degree diploma this year in July. I have applied for the MSc of History of International Relations at LSE for next year. For the italian students they require a degree of 106/110 and with the grades I have now (which are those I have sent them in the transcript). I have a starting grade of 101-102/110 which is lower than the minimum they require. But I have 6 exams to do this semester because my University offers the opportunity to choose a lot of optional courses so as to raise the average and I decided to choose a large number of them in order to achieve their requirements. I will graduate with 220 credits instead of 180 which is the standard number of credits with which someones can graduate in Italy. I choose only optional courses on Historic topics so I think that it will be possible for me to graduate with 106/110 or better by the end of the year if I work hard. But I don't have the marks yet so the selectors will see only those I have now which are too low I asked to my referees to say that I am planning to achieve their requirements and I hope they will give me a chance. I did my personal statement as better as I could and I hope the selectors will take it into consideration. What does the LSE students (or those who knows someones) think about it? Do you know someone who entered at LSE in a similar situation than mine? Do you think that they will understand my situation and give me a chance?
