Applying to Bsc Politics and Economics
Gcses: 9999888887
Predicted grades: A*A*A* (maths, economics and chemistry)
Feeling unconfident about getting an offer because of my GCSEs

Dont be, I got the exact same GCSE results and received an offer! your grades are really good and if your PS is to a really good standard then thats what matters most, it is unpredictable and depends on your course as LSE gives out limited offers but you def have a good chance of getting an offer with those stats. good luck :smile:

Anyone else taking the TMUA? Do you think a good score will make this LSE application more competitive?

Applying for BSc Finance
IGCSE's: 9999999996 (6 in Literature) with Top in my Country for History
Predicted Grades: IB 45/45 (HL: Maths Apps, Physics, Econ), A in TOK and EE

Haven't been to any open days but visited the campus a couple of times.
Just applied last night, quite nervous for LSE as I've had my eyes set on it for a few years now.

I have applied for the same course.
I'm an international student studying in UK since Year 12.
My school didn't offer GCSE curriculum so I did self-study for iGCSE achieving: 999997 (six subjects only)
Predicted Grades: 4A* (Achieved A* in 2023 Maths; other subjects are FM, Physics and Chem).
I just submitted UCAS last Thu and today received acknowledgement only.
With so many top students applying for LSE, I am also nervous about how it goes.

BTW, I read the guideline, it seems this course doesn't need interview or admission test. I think we can do nothing but wait.
Applying for History and Politics!
GCSES: 999987766 (not the best)
Predicted Grades: 45/45 IB points (HL English, History, Philosophy)
At the open day in July they said they really care about personal statements, so hoping for the best!

Hey everyone :smile:

I'm an international (EU) student applying for law LLB. I'm predicted 42/45 with 777 at HL. I'm only taking LNAT next week so super nervous about that. Overall I'm really excited as LSE is my dream university but also unsure if I will even get an offer. I guess it will be up to how well LNAT goes (ugh) and PS. Good luck to everyone though <33

IB 45/45 with maths and physics at HL is incredible. Good luck though I'm sure you will do well :smile:

Hello! I am an international student and have applied for BA History. My IB predicted score is 45/45 with 777 at HL in Physics, Economics, and English Language & Literature.
Just got a rejection. Applied 4 weeks ago. No request for additional info. Top grades so I thought I was in with a chance but clearly not.
