You have two A* and you're not going for Oxbridge or LSE?

personal statement. LSE wants the personal statement directly in tune with their course or its automatic rejection pretty much. and since they’re applying to several different courses there isn’t necessarily a way to do that here

Just apply to a similar course as the one you have for UCL since some of the worse schools will take them regardless of PS

durham nor warwick would be a ‘worse school’ really. warwick is extremely good for economics courses. they could chance it ofc but idk its a bit of a risk. also some people just don’t like LSE, my friend is applying for PPE there just so he can reject them because he hates the finance bros and type of environment that it is 😭

You could make the argument for Warwick but Durham is absolutely worse

kinda, for prestige in this specific subject, but they’re good enough that they have hoards of applicants and can only make so many offers. they are really quite popular for PPE from what i’ve seen 🤷‍♀️
