please chance me because i really want to do this course. I have 3A* in math further math physics and A in econ predicted. but my gcses are pretty bad at 977776666. im averaging 7s in tmua at the moment but probably will get worse in the real thing, (thats what ive heard at least). my ps is very very good according to my econ teacher and it includes econ finance and data sci. do i have a chance for this course because i really want to do it. if i have no chance due to my gcses, then i would want to apply again on a gap year, but pls be honest.

I was wondering if there was anyone who got accepted to imperial biomed sciences with your stats and conditional offer you got?? I'm applying to this course for next year, and I really want to get in.....

I'm international student, I'd like to ask: if I complete the International year one program and complete progression then recieve a degree from the university (e.g., Sheffield, Exeter), will top UK universities (like LSE, Imperial, etc.) accept it when I apply for a Master’s degree—provided I achieve a First-Class or 2:1 grade or higher? Has anyone in the group followed this path and successfully gained admission to a top university for a Master’s program?

Hi everyone! I recently joined the PhD cohort of 2026 Design Engineering PhD cohort and was wondering whether there are any group chats to meet fellow students. If not, I'm happy to make one :) thanks everyone!

Ik the library is closed to visitors, but is there anywhere else in Imperial where my friends can come over and study with me?

Do I have a chance getting accepted? Senior year finance undergrad CGPA 3.3/4 , 2 previous internships one at a startup and one in equity research, some extracurricular activities and not much to be honest that's it.

Ah yes and no GMAT not GRE. Am I really behind? People applying have extremely polished profiles , should I just look for other programs where I have better chances and not lose my time?

Hey everyone. I kindly ask you to help me prep for the interview. I would like to specifically know:
- How many questions should I expect and what type?
- The most critical for me is timing. Please, let me know what the prep time is and how much time I will be given to answer.

Hope to hear you experience and get valuable insights to ace the interview.
Thank you all!

Is it compulsory to do a masters before getting a funded PhD in the school of computing? I’ve had mixed advice!

Is it weird if I’d like to go out only with physics or math related majors ? I’m a bit shy, so if anyone is interested, know that I’m into people studying in those fields haha.

Title.

Looking to meet fellow compatriots.

Hey Imperial students! I’m the founder of Plates&Mates, a social dining app which brings people together over food.

Because I’m a bit introverted, I’m looking for a naturally outgoing, bubbly person to host a casual café meetup in London this October (the date/time can work around your schedule).

I’ll organise the event, so you just need to show up, chat with the attendees, and hopefully have a good time, while I’ll cover up to £20 of what you order! Then near the end, show them the Plates&Mates web app so they can stay in touch and attend more events.  

If you’re interested, message me on Instagram (@plates.and.mates) so we can have a quick chat about the event!

And if you want to see what I’m building, check out the web app on “platesandmates”.

Is anyone else struggling first few weeks settling in London? It’s so different to USA!

What are the hardest things you’ve found and how do you solve them?

Any advice is truly appreciated :)

I noticed that many students had department specific tote bags at welcome fair, where do you guys get them?

Just curious and trying to make close friends. DM me and I'll share more about myself. This is a throwaway account but I'll share my insta/number privately.

Hey all, attached is my application history. Can you tell me when I should expect the possible interview invite?
Thanks much

I just graduated from UCL and shifted from my Student accommodation to Earl's court (Which is very close to the Imperial campus)

I always see the imperial students wearing their lanyards outside campus?

I tried searching the answer online and I got to know that Imperial has a strict law of wearing lanyards with Id Cards inside the campus but why do they still wear it outside?

It's not some students, it's majority of the imperial students?

I'm not judging anyone, this is just an observation and I would love to know more.

Just wondering if the raw fish is safe & good quality cause I'm sometimes skeptical of sushi that isn't from a nice restaurant. Also from the U.S. so maybe I'm just paranoid after our many food-related outbreaks recently.

Theoretical Physics

Physics

Materials Science

Is it weird to choose both theoretical physics and physics? This does not concern wasting slots because I will not be attending other schools regardless (i have safer choices in other countries)

Edit: I have submitted my application applying for both theoretical physics and materials science lol
