Personal statement ppe/ pol & econ
Applying to the following Unis:
LSE POL & ECON
UCL PPE
KCL PPE
WARWICK PPE
BRISTOL POL & ECON
My Reference is currently being written and I’ve submitted my UCAS to college, so kinda in the purgatory stage if you will.
I’m worried that my neglect of explicitly naming Philosophy ( i did acknowledge philosophical concepts) will hinder my PPE Course choices, but then if I did mention it I would hinder my LSE chance.
How can I work around this, eg) I’m eager to develop a nuanced understanding of politics and economics is my opening statement currently

Hi! I applied to a mix of PPE and Politics and Economics courses as well, and I didn't specifically mention Philosophy as its own subject, but rather weaved it into the paragraphs of my personal statement.

If you don't mind me asking, what predicted grades are you submitting with?

I got an offer for KCL PPE and really only mentioned political philosophy and economic philosophy if that helps?
