I am currently in my final year of high school and achieved AAAAA in my highers. I have had my sights set on a law degree, however, i am recently realising I am also very interested in economics. I take part in a lot of extracurriculars, including volunteering and debate club. I have relevant work experience tailored for law and have a strong personal statement for this subject, so would applying for a joint degree lower my chances of getting a place at university? My first choice is Edinburgh, and they are really hard to get into, so I don't know if it's worth the risk. Would it be a good idea to apply to Edinburgh twice, one for straight law and the other for law and economics?
The other universities I am deciding between are Glasgow, Dundee, Strathclyde and Aberdeen.
Thanks in advance
