Hey everyone,

I have come up with a shortlist of unis for economics and just want your opinion on their quality. I have 4 As at A level in Maths, Chemistry, Politics and Accounting and an A in AS-level Eco.

UCL
University of Warwick
University of Exeter
University of Birmingham
University of Edinburgh
University of East Anglia
University of Bristol
University of Nottingham
University of York

How would you rate these unis in terms of reputation and strength of their economics department as well as the social life at the university?

Check out my sig threads. esp. TAELT and the econ uni guide.
Issues:
i)Econ only at AS. (Is it an option for you to do A2 this year?)
ii)Accounting is less preffered.

Strengths
i)4 A grades at A-level (though one is Accouting)
My suggestion would be:
2 AAB.0+
2 AAB.1
1 AAB.2
(see TAELT for what unis are in each group).
