chances for ucl economics

i’m really worried about ucl economics, i’m predicted A*AA maths economics and politics with a B in AS Spanish which i thought would be fine but apparently A*A*A* is the average. i got 988888876 for gcses, and my personal statement was deemed strong by everyone who read it. what are my chances?

honestly not that good. i had A*A*A and applied to management because econ is too competitive. maybe if your essay is good but yes average is indeed A*A*A*

Icl, for UCL econ, your chances aren’t high. No further math, predicted grades are good but for UCL econ a lot of applicants are going in with A*A*A minimum so the competition is very high - as you know already but also remember grades aren’t everyone.

I do hope you get an offer though prove me wrong please hahah.
