Thank you! Did you talk about economics and politics separately or together? Did you have a general theme and also did you do an equal split like LSE says?

Sorry for the late response, I did do 50/50, and i mainly talked about them together. Yes my general theme was based on socio-economic inequality.

I'm a current first student in Pol and Econ at the LSE and I was in your boots last year! If you have any queries feel free to ask

Got my offer pretty late in April, but as others were saying I wouldn't look too much into when offers come out as the LSE application process is a bit of a mystery really. I got 3A*s in Maths, Chemistry and Politics. I think your grades are good enough for most courses, but even if they are it'll be the Personal Statement that's the deciding factor as always.

Thank you so much for replying,
I think it was only for pure econ applicants.
That makes me feel a lot better!

Hey! I saw you got rejected from pol + econ! Hope you're doing okay! I was curious if you would be okay with sharing your personal statement? No worries if you don't want to! Good luck with all your other choices x
