  • I asked you guys over on my Instagram this week for your questions about LSE and today I'm going to be answering some of them! From rich students to the social life (or lack thereof!) we talk about all of the classic stereotypes and more. I'm sharing the best and worst things about studying at LSE today so I hope you enjoy :) Because you asked so many interesting questions, I decided to turn this video into a Part 1 and a Part 2 so be sure to subscribe and turn on notifications so you're informed as soon as the next part comes out! If you have any more questions about LSE/ applications/ anything else do feel free to comment them down below and I'll get back to you!
    I usually upload once a week, normally on Sunday at 6pm. Be sure to give this video a thumbs up, subscribe and turn on that bell notification to hear so you don’t miss my uploads!

It is basically the name given to the exchange between LSE and foreign universities so it's not only for American students :) My GC friends did it last year or two years ago so they are not in London anymore, but if you have some questions, I could ask them and share their responses in the uni Q&A I had planned on doing :)

    Have you heard from other Geo BA UoL students if the workload is relatively similar? I've heard LSE is one of the most demanding which scares me away from choosing it

    • @ImogenWhite
      @ImogenWhite  3 роки тому +2

      I believe the workload at UCL is slightly less intense but I only have one friend on the UCL Geog course so obviously that depends on how she specifically finds it! I don't know about Kings or the other London unis. Certainly LSE does have an intense course and one thing I would say is make sure that's actually what you want. It's not so much whether you'll be able to manage the workload, if you get an offer at LSE then you will be bright enough to manage the work, but make sure it's what you want. It's not going to be a walk in the park and it will be full on during term, but there are certainly benefits to going to LSE! It's a fantastic university and for all of it's intense workload it does have really small classes, a reasonably small student population and obviously a good reputation!

      You meet all the GCSE requirements so as long as you have the right A Level grades and write a really good personal statement you should stand a good chance!

  • @safiyahm4297
    @safiyahm4297 3 роки тому +2

    Do you find the society in general quite competitive and pressuring? i would guess that surrounded by such high achievers there is that high risk

    • @ImogenWhite
      @ImogenWhite  3 роки тому +2

      I don't really find the university pressuring itself, but the pressure tends to come from me putting it on myself to do everything I'm meant to be doing. Likewise, I don't really find the environment competitive but that's because everyone I've met has been super friendly and supportive. I talk more in Part 2 about imposter syndrome but that's something I struggle with in class sometimes, just feeling like I'm the only one who doesn't understand.

      I think last year I got my offers in January, but I already had my grades because of my gap year and there was no UCAS deadline extension last year (pre Covid). So I wouldn't worry just yet, it's most likely that they just haven't considered your application as otherwise they would have either accepted/ rejected you!
