Is there a lot of maths content in PPE?

I thought that PPE would be a good mixture of all three subjects, but for the Uni I want to go to (UEA) it seems to be economics-based predominantly and is in the School of Economics. I don't want to be doing THAT much economics. Is there a lot of it in PPE degrees in general?
look at the module descriptions

Depends on the uni - you'll need to have a look at the modules for each uni and find out which are compulsory.

If you aren't that keen on economics, I'd opt for a politics and philosophy degree, preferably at a uni that will allow you to take a couple of economics modules as a free choice module.

In addition to what Origiami Bullets has said, you should really be choosing universities based on the course content- if UEA's course doesn't suit your preferences then it shouldn't be the uni you want to go to.
