Only doing 3 AS-Levels. Need advice

Current AS-Levels: (I want to do Economics/Business Administration at University.)

Maths
Economics
Psychology
Media Studies (Planning to drop it as of Monday)

I don't like my fourth subject (Media Studies) and I don't really want to pick another one as the others don't appeal to me. Therefore I'll be doing 3 A-Levels

Am I at a disadvantage by just doing 3 AS-Levels?

P.S I want to do Economics at University preferably at UCL/LSE.


Then you should replace media studies with further maths.

edit: yes, you'll need a fourth AS level.

i agree with Timmona...

if you want to do Economics at those unis then you should probably bring further maths into the mix rather than media...

Agree with Timmonaportella. You will need a 4th AS level without a doubt. My advice is look up the universities you may be interested in applying next year and look at the entry requirments regarding A level subjects. That should give you an idea of what subjects are compulsory. Instead of Media Studies I would advice pick another AS level like Further Maths, but do your research well.

You've had three replies already?
I don't know the answer honestly but I'd suggest you ask the universities themselves
