Don't set your heart out on LSE. It's very competitive. UCL is right next to LSE and is almost as good. Also if you're good enough for LSE, you're good enough for Oxbridge.

Definitely take m, fm, econ + one other. Please note that if you take 4 AS, you cannot drop any subject for A2 other than FM. Counter intuitive I know, so basically you have to stick to 4 A2.

Don't take 5 AS/A2, especially if it compromises your grades. I would strongly suggest 4 AS/A2, since LSE economics ask for modular scores, so you have to maximise. Many who get into top econ schools will have done 5, but it doesn't make a difference. If you do take a fifth, history would be the best choice for uni preparation, but sociology might be a better choice since it seems easy to maximise in. The choice you make won't matter because you're already doing 3 solid subjects. If you can't handle 5 A2s then you'll never be able to handle uni! I'm sure you can if you put some heart into it.

I don't particularly like physics and I sat M1 and M2 and I think I've done pretty well in them and found them relatively interesting.

A level workload isn't that much if you space it out from the start of the year. Doing m+fm will significantly cut time if you're natural.
