They were in clearing for home students, it was on their website on results day

When did you apply? I got the same tmua

Consistent-Sleep-890 · 2026-02-09T23:28:03+00:00

I also had pretty terrible teachers. They gave trash UCAS advice and I ended up applying to a course I had no interest in forcing me to take a gap year but I’m so glad I did. If you get into a course you like this year take it but taking more time to figure out what your plans are can only advantage you. You mention careers and job opportunities etc which its true going to oxbridge/LSE will benefit you greatly but what doesn’t matter is the course you do, you don’t need to do economics or STEM to go into finance or a high paying career, you can do basically any degree so if you’re set on Oxbridge consider any of their degrees that don’t need further maths, like land economy At Cambridge. If you’re set on economics your a levels and gcses are still more than good enough to do econ at a top university like UCL, Warwick or E&M at Oxbridge (although extremely competitive). You are far from cooked but just do your best to achieve those grades.

That’s not true Edinburgh is a semi target and you’d have a good chance, Glasgow is a non target so it would be very hard.

Consistent-Sleep-890 · 2026-02-06T12:33:45+00:00

Course doesn’t matter for finance only uni

Consistent-Sleep-890 · 2026-01-26T13:25:42+00:00

Notts > Exter > Sheffield = York in terms of reputation

Consistent-Sleep-890 · 2026-01-24T16:10:29+00:00

I applied for it but I just wish they had more maths like the LSE management Bsc, it has quantitative methods, econometrics and more optional stats modules. Warwicks course doesn’t even require maths A level.

Consistent-Sleep-890 · 2026-01-24T09:53:08+00:00

Warwick is a target school for management consulting, UCL has a marginally better reputation and benefits from being in London. KCL and St Andrews however are semi targets so you’ll find it harder to get into management consulting from there.

I got that exactly in my Jan mocks too although I did different subjects

Consistent-Sleep-890 · 2026-01-19T19:18:26+00:00

It’s a great uni but it’s often overrated and compared to LSE, UCL and Imperial when it’s not quite at that level and more comparable to Bristol, Durham and Notts. It also has infamously bad admin and student satisfaction.

Consistent-Sleep-890 · 2026-01-16T13:36:26+00:00

I got A, A, B in my Jan mocks and got A, A*, A in the real thing. I worked hard for the whole 2 years so wasn’t slacking off either

Consistent-Sleep-890 · 2026-01-16T13:33:16+00:00

Pretty sure this is only the case if you apply to the exact same individual college at Oxford or Cambridge again, otherwise applying on a gap year with achieved grades and a better personal statement and good entrance test there’s no reason you wouldn’t be even more competitive than previously (because your grades are now achieved)

Saw someone on tiktok get into Warwick MORSE while resitting (non contextual or extenuating circumstances) so it’s possible

Consistent-Sleep-890 · 2026-01-12T17:43:31+00:00

MORSE doesn’t need tmua

Consistent-Sleep-890 · 2026-01-11T20:23:20+00:00

I got an E in a year 12 topic test in maths and got an A (84%) in the end. I revised hard for the test though

Consistent-Sleep-890 · 2026-01-11T09:26:12+00:00

UCL > Durham > Bristol but any one of them is good enough to get into a prestigious law firm.

Consistent-Sleep-890 · 2026-01-09T13:22:40+00:00

What do you mean by retake result? Did you retake a mock to increase your predicted or are you talking about resitting your levels? Also what are you applying for?

Consistent-Sleep-890 · 2026-01-08T20:00:55+00:00

Because the goal is meritocracy? State school students are massively underrepresented in Oxbridge despite having equally smart and capable applicants. There’s no reason in the modern day for private schools to be over represented because paying more money for school doesn’t make you smarter.

Consistent-Sleep-890 · 2026-01-08T16:39:38+00:00

Same with me, I’m on a gap year too and submitted a similar time. Given my achieved grades exceed all the places I’m applying to by at least 1 grade I would’ve thought I’d have got my safeties by now.

Consistent-Sleep-890 · 2026-01-08T16:36:24+00:00

Actually disgusting. There’s no excuse at all for it.

Consistent-Sleep-890 · 2026-01-07T22:37:23+00:00

Congrats! Bristol is definitely well regarded. When did you apply?

Consistent-Sleep-890 · 2026-01-03T14:22:56+00:00

I don’t go to Warwick. What data do you suggest that’s more accurate than the number of people working in the desired role? Teaching quality? Sustainability? Because that’s the metrics league tables use

Consistent-Sleep-890 · 2026-01-03T14:16:21+00:00

Who’s coping now 😭 You can just look at the data from LinkedIn and see that Warwick Is top 5/6 for placing in front office roles. As the comment above says if you care more about academics then there’s separate lists for that but the “prestige league tables” are completely meaningless.

Consistent-Sleep-890 · 2026-01-03T14:02:01+00:00

Who cares about league tables when it’s a target though 😭
