KCL Political Economy Applicants

Just wanted to create a thread so that we can all share the grades we have applied with, and when we get offers!

I'm applying with A*AA in Maths, Economics and Politics with mitigating circumstances. The other places I applied to are Oxford PPE, UCL PPE, Manchester Econ and Politics and Nottingham Econ and Politics.

Offers usually go out in mid March to mid April onwards. So, you have nothing to worry about. 🙂

Same, I haven’t gotten an offer yet with grades of A*AA in Maths, Economics and Politics. I’m really worried as some people have received offers yet I applied in mid October!😅

Mostly 7s at GCSE, A Level predicted A*A*A, Solid PS on History and Economics, Decent reference I’d say, but imo I’d like to think my personal statement carried it all

I applied for PPE not H&E - I think you meant someone else?

Oh I’ve applied for just Political Economy at KCL - someone else on this thread applied for History and Political Economy.

I was very fortunate to be invited to interview for Oxford!

How about you?
