UCAS

Currently my predictions are AAC
- A in economics
- A in history
- C in maths

My UCAS application consists of:
- Birkbeck- History BA - BBC required
- QMUL- History BA - ABB required
- KCl- History and Political Economy BA
- AAA required
- Southampton- Politics and Economics
- Cardiff- History BA, ABB-BBC required.

I was just wondering is applying to these courses a good idea given that in my personal statement I have mentioned both economics and history?

It seems like a reasonable list to me. Be aware that receiving an offer from KCL may be unlikely given the two-grade difference between your predicted grades and their requirements.

The topics you've covered in your personal statement seem fine too.

I would try up your predicted for Maths because that will really make the difference hopefully and the personal statement shouldn’t be too much of an issue as long as there is a slight more focus on history considering how many history/history related subjects you’ve applied to! Good luck and I hope all goes well for you:smile:
