Do I have to take Further Maths at AS Level or A Level for Economics at LSE?

I am a GCSE Student who is choosing his A Levels! My dream is to do Economics at LSE! Do I need to choose A Level Further Maths or can I do it as an AS instead. Would LSE prefer me to take it at AS Level?
I thought you already made a thread on this?
You don't HAVE to.
You can though, and it would probably be helpful

Yes! You can ask for the stats of how many people they accepted who didn't do further maths under freedom of information and they would be obligated to reply. My friend asked and I believe the number was extremely low. You must do it to AS at least.

If it's offered at your school and you decided not to do it, I expect LSE would ask why you didn't & then probably reject your application

no, in fact you'd get an easier offer.
(A A A instead of A* A A )
