Yeah your subjects are fine.
Probably most places really - Perhaps unis like Bristol/Exeter/Durham etc will take you without many issues
Even if it means that with Maths Bio chem i could be looking at A* A* A whereas with Maths Chem Econ i would be looking at A* A* B
I think you should look at which unis you would like to go to and see what their minimum grade requirements are and whether economics is required or desirable for their course. If economics is required and the grade requirement is lower than A*A*A then apply. If you find unis where economics is not essential but ask for A*A*A and you would prefer to apply there then go for those.
Well all i can say is that your mircro is pretty good but a retake in macro would help. A friend was in a similar position to you but retook the macro paper and bumped his low B to an A! Honestly, you won't really have to revise for this chapter at all since economics A2 is very synoptic with AS which macro easily being the most. I cant really think of a topic in AS macro that isnt in A2
But A level economics is nothing like degree level economics, thus would be fine to drop even if you were to study it since admissions understand that its not exactly as challenging to what degree level economics offers (I think Oxford mentioned on a post that they were fine with students dropping a level computing for CS degrees, so i presume the same for others)
