Economics and Economic History 2024 Thread

That’s tricky maybe like 40%. You?

Yh 30 or 40 I reckon, what topics did you mention?

I’ve applied for both economic history courses (dual honours and on its own) and am wondering what you thought counted as economic history vs economics in your ps? My whole personal statmeent revolves around the history of economics with my first paragraph being about how I got into it via a talk on neocolonialism, second being how I developed my ideas via certain books and what I learnt, and lastly talked about how I implement what I learn into presentations, extracurricular etc

Actually I’m not entirely sure about how to differentiate both very precisely, but I think what you based on what you explains sounds great. I think there’s a clear development and it’s great that you talked about how you implemented you interest and knowledge in extracurricular etc..

hope so mate, the waiting game is just so boring haha but not much we can do about it, sounds better than it was and unfortunately my predicteds arent the greatest compared to my GCSEs

they might realise and reject you from both instantly, why not just apply economic history then?

large amounts of people apply to both? your allowed to apply to numerous you realise that right

Yh but shows u dont have interest in1 specific course.

Hi have you guys received an offer yet??

shows I have a strong interest in economic history which lse offers the strongest courses for and is relatively niche, I did not take history a level but I did take it at GCSE. I’ve spoke someone I know on the course and she said a large amount applied to both and it doesn’t negatively impact their application

yo any updates ?
