LSE Economics and Data Science
Hi everyone,
I am trying to decide between applying to LSE for BSc Econ and Data Science and BSc Maths and Econ. Of course there is no way to answer for certain as it is a new course, but if you had to guess which of the courses would be less competitive? My thinking is because the Data science programme is new less people will know about it and so should have a slightly higher offer rate. Additionally, it would make sense that TMUA requirement would be slightly lower for Econ and Data science due to the lower Maths weighting (although I’m aware that there is still quite a lot of Maths as part of the course - this is not an issue for me): what do you all think?. Any insight would be massively appreciated.
