Applied for Social Policy with Politics at LSE, SP Politics at Bristol, and Policy, Politics and Economics at Birmingham.I applied as it involved the part of politics im really interested in, which is how to solve social problems such as poverty and inequality and stuff like that. I submitted my application yesterday and I'm not expecting much from LSE but Bristol is my first choice. Why did you want to apply?

Thanks for the replies! Bristol in my first choice too, so far I have got offers from Leeds (ABB/BBB + A in EPQ) and York (BBC). When i was choosing, i so nearly chose LSE but it involved a bit more economics than other courses so i decided against it, Good Luck guys

My UCAS grades are ABB (seemingly a lot lower than lots of people on other chats!!). Bristol put me on hold but gave an offer the day after so don’t be too worried if you get that too. My Birmingham offer was BBB so is definitely my 2nd if not 1st choice now

We have the same UCAS grades so I wouldn't worry about that since I've had offers from all my choices. Birmingham will be my 1st choice aswell😊

Glasgow asks for AAB and there are only 20 places on the UCL course I think so am not expecting offers from either of them! It's just between Bristol or Birmingham I think.

How long was the wait for the offer for Social Policy and Politics @ Bristol? I submitted my application on the 14th December and was put on hold a week or so later and heard nothing else yet.
