Politics and IR or PPE?

I've got a few questions so if any of you could answer any of them then that would be infinitely helpful.

Ok, so firstly, I'm doing my A2's and plan on going to the University of Manchester in September for Politics and IR, but the more I've been thinking about it, the more I believe that PPE would be more beneficial to me in the long run, is PPE better than Politics and IR or does it not really matter? I love Politics, Economics and IR but I'm not sure which course would be useful in the job market.

Secondly, is it possible to even switch courses this late in the day, I mean the entry requirements are both AAB, which I should get and I don't need Maths at A Level to do the PPE course. Will I need to write a whole new personal statement, or is it possible to switch courses?

Lastly, as atm I can't decide what job I'd like to go into, but either something to do with Politics or banking/finance, would it be worth switching to PPE and is Manchester wll respected by employers for PPE, obviously not as good as Oxford, but just on general.

I know this is a lot but any advice you could give me would be useful. I love IR, but some IR modules are covered in PPE anyway which has got me thinking because I'd really like to do Economics and definitely wouldn't mind Philosophy either.

Thanks a lot!

I honestly dont think there is a difference in terms of employabilty between Pol/ IR and PPE (and I'm not trying to be biased or anything as I'm doing an IR degree. What matters more is getting a 2:1 at least and getting work experience. So I'd go for the course you prefer the most.

Switching will depend on if there are places available, you need to contact the admissions for Politics at Manchester.

What are you looking to do after you leave University? It really comes down to that to be honest.

I'm pretty open about what I could do, I mean I'd love to go into banking and finance, NGO's, think tanks, I haven't got a set idea of what I want to do yet.

id go for PPE then. IR really is only for people who want to do something involving politics on an international level I think. For the stuff your looking at doing, PPE would definetly be better- more job oppurtunities too. I don't think you can get into banking with an International Relations degree..
