UCL Economics

I'm thinking about applying to read Economics at UCL, however I am very concerned about my A Level choices. I am currently studying Maths, Physics, History and Business Studies, with A*A*A*A* predicted. Unfortunately my school could not offer Economics or Further Mathematics.
I was considering dropping Business Studies to focus on my other subjects and develop my independent economic learning. Given the disadvantage of not studying further maths, should I continue four subjects to have a realistic chance of receiving an offer.

omg with those grades they'll definitely let u in lol

Well, they ask for A*AA with the A* being in Maths and an A in Economics if taken. Don't sweat over it as you exceed the requirements and if they actually wanted economics, they would require it.

I doubt doing Business Studies would provide any significant advantage to be honest, but more is better regardless. If you feel you can manage the workload, go ahead and take all four!

Hi Stefan, thanks very much for your help. Lately, I've been considering dropping Business Studies to take an AS in Further Maths. Do you think that this would be a better option? I was unsure how much emphasis was placed on FM, compared to places such as the LSE.
