Extra Reading for Economics (L100)

Hello,

Will be entering Warwick Econs this October.

How much extra reading should I expect to do? Besides, how will the work-life balance be like?

Thank you.
Can I ask a question about your application to economics at Warwick?

I'm an intl student so I took a GSCE equivalent. I got 4A* 5A 1A- though. For AS i got 4As and predicted grades were 2A*1A.

I ended up with 1A*2A for A2
Do GCSEs matter especially if you're applying to Warwick.
My GCSEs are 8 maths, 7 english lang, 6 english lit, B core science, B additional science, C business studies, Distinction* Level 2 Sport
How hard do u think the course will be? I want to chill and keep it laid back especially in the first yr but still need to scrape a 2;1

I havent done further maths either so will it be particularly hard when i start in october?

You got an A* in maths? I suppose you did not have FM?
