lol… and you think you can’t take these modules if you do straight econ at other unis??? if you do straight econ at the LSE, u’ll be able to take accounting and fincance and etc…

At LSE BSc Econ, one would have to go out of the way to choose a business related course for an elective. I don’t don’t think there’s place for more than one (I’ve researched this extensively since I’m an applicant for fall 07)

At Oxford E&M, intro to management is required, and there is no way to avoid at least 3 business related courses (operations, accounting, finance, or marketing) for electives.



also, since when do you have to work at a uni to know ppl there? maybe you’ve just lived there and know lots of classmates who went on to pursue a degree there? or maybe you’ve even visited that place serveral times, because you considered to apply for E&M there? Or maybe you’ve met with the E&M tutors at Oxford to see whether it’d be a good fit for you?

To know 10 E&M students (which doesn’t accept many students) and 2 tutors, you would have to have strong affiliations. Visiting the school in hopes of getting in wouldn’t provide the opportunity to get to know so many e&m students. You’re obviously a liar. And judging by your posts on the_studentroom, you’re a kid whos applied to said program without referencing the management side in your econ-focused-personal-essay.
