Should I decline the A2 grade and keep my AS 'A' grade?
I got my A2 results yesterday and I was very pleased to have achieved AAAB.
However, the subject I got the B in was A grade at AS level. Considering I am aiming for the top (and highly competitive) city firms when I graduate, should I decline the A2 grade in the fourth subject and just keep the AS grade so that my application form will be straight As? I've been told that they will look for anything to cut down the number of initial applicants, and that B grade does stick out like a sore thumb when compared with my other results.
Thanks for any advice.

Yes, but I think it would be better to have a fourth A level rather than 3 A levels and an AS despite the B grade.
