International Applicant

​

International applicant here (Hungary) applying for Law.

My Matura results are currently projected around:

Advanced English: 88%

Advanced Russian: 95%

Advanced History: 85%

Standard Maths: 91%

Standard Hungarian: 91%

According to LSE/UCL/Oxford equivalency tables, this seems to place me in the A\*A\*A\* equivalent range already.

My question is: realistically, would pushing something like English from 88% to 95% make any meaningful difference for LSE Law admissions, or once you’re already above the A\* threshold does the focus shift more toward LNAT, PS, and overall profile?

Would really appreciate honest opinions from current students/applicants.

Or a shorter, more Reddit-style version:

Hungarian applicant for Law here.

Advanced:

English 88%

Russian 95%

History 85%

Standard:

Maths 91%

Hungarian 91%

From the equivalency tables this seems to already meet A\*A\*A\* level requirements.

Realistically, would improving something like 88% → 95% matter much for LSE/Oxford/UCL Law, or are LNAT + PS far more important at that point?
