MSc Economics at Durham University

I'm on course for either First Class or 2.1 in IT degree. I haven't got any Economics module but I did study Economics at A-Level.

Achieved Grade A in Economics at A-LEVEL. I achieved A* last Unit of A-
Level Economics.

This is the course I want to study at Durham University afterwards. I want to know what are my chances of getting in?

Evidence on your degree transcript that your programme contained a substantial Economics component.

You haven't done any economics modules in your undergrad so I don't see how you can hope to get into a course that requires a substantial economics component?? If you have your heart set on doing a masters in economics, you should look into doing a postgrad diploma in economics first.
