QMUL History and Politics

My UCAS predictions are AAC, A in maths, A in economics, C in maths. Will this be acceptable for QMUL history and politics, if I get these grades or lower that being AAD ( A in history, A in economics and D in maths)?

Hey! Based on QMUL’s typical entry requirements for History and Politics, they usually ask for AAB at A-level. Your predicted grades of AAC (or even AAD) are slightly below that, but universities don’t just look at grades. They consider your personal statement, references, and overall application too.

The fact that you’re doing well in History and Economics is a big plus, as those are highly relevant to the course. If your personal statement is strong and shows your passion for the subject, it could really help your chances. QMUL also has a contextual admissions policy, so if you meet certain criteria (like coming from a specific background or school), they might be more flexible with the grade requirements.

I’d recommend reaching out directly to QMUL’s admissions team. They’ll be able to give you a clearer idea of where you stand and whether your grades might be acceptable. At the end of the day, it’s always worth applying if it’s a course you’re excited about, sometimes universities are more flexible than you’d think. Good luck! 😊

Hi, just wondering if you did an EPQ? maybe they could give you a contextual offer. I received two offers from QMUL for history and IR and Politics and IR, with ABB predicted but an A in EPQ. If you meet the criteria for contextual it may increase your chances of an offer since their requirements for History and Politics are ABB and you are getting two A’s, hopefully you will receive an offer provided both your personal statement and references are strong.
