btw, I applied for economics, but I've never studied it b4, what questions would the admission tutors ask me?

right
1. open applications *in theory* does not effect chances. however, when i visited emma, the admission tutor hinted that DO NOT make an open application. toss a coin or something to write one down randomly and just choose from the prospectus. if you make an open application, you get allocated to the college with one of the least of applicants. it will be unlikely you will be pooled.
2. it is normal if someone applying for economics never studied the subject before. however, they expect you to do extra reading around the subject and you should be able to talk about what you know related to this extra reading
