LAE Stratford Offer Holders

Hi guys, I just wanted to see what other offer holders for LAES are choosing as their A-Level options and what predicted grades they got offers with.
I’m choosing maths, further maths, physics and economics and my predicteds are 99888888877.
I wish everyone the best of luck with revision and exams coming up.

I’m genuinely lost on how Stratford was giving out offers. Ik 2 ppl who were predicted 12 9s and got rejected, and another who was predicted 11. I was predicted 10 9s 2 8s and recieved an offer for maths fm econ and politics

I don’t got an offer, but can I js ask u:
Do u have free school meals
How close to Stratford do u live
Cuz I also picks maths, fm, physics and econ, and I had preds 999888888, yet I got rejected 😭

im really sorry 💔💔 did you apply to other schools?
yes i do have free schools but i live about an hour away from stratford. i think the fsm is the main reason i got an offer.

Ooo I see
But ye free school meals was defo the reason, cuz my friend was predicted all 7s and 2 9s and got in, and he had fsm.
But ye I applied to Brampton and ncs too, and luckily those ones look at ur real GCSEs rather than anything else, which is way better for me.

I think its a combination of grades (obviously) + oversubscription criteria + references + subject choices.
I got an offer with predicted 11 9’s and an A in FSMQ + a teacher submitted an extra reference for me which is probably why I got one. I think I’m a bit of an exception tho cause I do Bio, Chem, Maths & Spanish and don’t fit the oversubscription criteria or have fsm so idk

On the criteria, people who pick languages are prioritised. Cuz I’ve also heard they’re trying to expand their mfl section too.

I applied for English Literature, Politics and Psychology, and I have predicteds of all 9s (I take 9 GCSEs)

you have amazing predicteds omg i actually salute u for taking english 😭😭clearly im a stem warrior

two languages picked here and no offer, so definitely not prioritised

Not necessarily. I got an offer and I don’t fit any of the over subscription criteria. My predicted grades are 12 9s. There is something else they are not telling us because it is very random. Some people even get in with no Grade 9s.
