Oh I'm sorry! I've been told by some people that a STEP offer will be made for Economics! And I could've sworn I saw on the Economics side that STEP 1 and STEP 2 will be needed only if you went up to AS further maths!
I was telling them to apply to lower offer uni's just so if they miss their firm they'll still have their insurance and even if they missed their firm by a grade they'll be likely to be accepted onto their insurance. No point firming and insuring two uni's with the exact same grade requirements because they can miss their offer which means they missed their offer for both the firm and insurance!

Typical offers require A Level: A*A*A IB: 40-41 points, with 776 at Higher Level
Course requirements Required by all Colleges: A Level/IB Higher Level Mathematics Required by some Colleges: AS or A Level/IB Higher Level Further Mathematics, STEP Mathematics*
I'd put Exeter as 5th - good reputation for Economics.
Don't feel pressured to go for Oxbridge- just because you have the grade predictions it does not mean it will suit you.
Fair point. Although experiencing an Oxbridge interview day would also help the OP make that decision. It's one thing to apply, another to get an offer, and then the ultimate decision to accept the offer.
But there is also no point in putting down 4 choices of A*aa he might aswell try oxbridge
The OP has A*A*A* prediction but is overly worried he's not going to get many offers, rather than his ability to make the offers. Hence putting lots of universities with A*AA requirements.
