Guys please could someone tell me honestly if I still have a chance of getting into UCL for economics BSC. predicted three A*s in maths, further maths and economics. GCSE grades 999998877, I think i’ve got a decent reference only issue might be a basic personal statement. End of april and i’m still waiting and going crazy!

OMGGG im int he exact same position. got predicted A*A*A*A and still haven't heard back from lse or ucl !! I have no idea what it means and I just hope that lots of people are in the same position and also haven't got offers as it would be a good sign that they are just really slow with the application process. wish u luck!!

My friend hasn't heard back either and she got A*A*A*A predicted in FM maths economics and chemistry, 999998876 and a 3.9 TMUA, and unfortunately got rejected from LSE for her tmua being too low. She got into Warwick tho, so how likely would she be to get into UCL. I got into LSE for law and I would rlly like it if she came to a uni close to mine if she can't come to LSE with me :frown:

Awww okay this is kinda reassuring but i’ve been hearing at this point all the people still waiting are like less strong candidates so they’re comparing the last batch- really hoping that’s not the case

Damn, you guys have better stats than me 😭😭😭 I got an acceptance march 3rd for econ with 3a*s in maths business econ, contextual home student, GCSEs were 98888877777 but to be fair that was the second best set in my secondary, I didn’t do the TMUA bc I got messed up on practise tests and was also an early applicant so I didn’t want to revise for it lol. I saw on another thread that it doesn’t matter when they get back to you, they’re all considered the same way so chill guys lmao, they probs just haven’t read ur apps yet. When I went to the offer holder day basically everyone I spoke to had 4a*s in econ maths physics fm but I took business and still got in so hold out hope. Also btw everyone I spoke to had awful tmuas, most had 3s, some had 4.
