politics and ir at ucl
i'm studying politics, economics, and maths at a-level, alongside an epq that's also focused on linguistics and politics. for my gcses i got 99999998877, but unfortunately i got a 5 in music 
( i was wondering if the grade 5 would affect my chances of getting accepted onto the politics and ir course at ucl? not sure how competitive it is. if i got A*A*A or even A*AA in my a-levels, and a top epq grade (A/A*), with a good personal statement and everything...how lucky would i have to be to get in? i know i'm being kind of hopeful but my academics are generally quite strong, music just wasn't it for me. please be honest because we only get 5 uni applications and i need to know if it's worth applying to!!
