Things to do on a gap year to help Economics Application.

Hey,

Recently I kind of reevaluated what I want to do at uni. At the moment I have 4 offers to do Physics (Durham, Warwick, Lancaster, Bath) but am worrying that I don't anctually enjoy Physics/ find it interesting enough to do at uni, and that Economics might be preferable. Due to this I'm self teaching Economics this year and am considering a gap year before reapplying for Econ (Uni ideas include- Cambridge, LSE, Warwick)
I have As is AS Econ, Biology, Physics, Chemistry and Maths, and an A in A2 Crit Thinking
I'm doing A2 Maths, Physics, Chemistry and Econ this year, along with AS Further Maths.

What I want to know is, whether I still have a chance of getting into these unis after having a gap year? If so, what should I do during the gap year, is there any good gap year jobs related to Economics, and if so when do I need to apply by (To start later this year after summer)

Thanks very much,

Nick.
