Economics to Management studies at Cambridge

I'd love to study at Cambridge, but I'm not sure if I could stay interested on pure economics for 3 years. Is it possible to take economics for 2 years and then take management studies for the last year? If so, what is the acceptance rate for management studies?
i dont think cambridge does management studies. u cld apply to oxford econ and management but it has a very low acceptance rate

Management Studies is only available as a Part II (i.e. third year) course, so you have to study two years of something else before you can request to swap into it. However, there is no guarantee you will be able to, as it will depend on how many others are trying to move into that course.

As above, Cambridge offer it as a Part II course: https://www.undergraduate.study.cam.ac.uk/courses/management-studies

Thanks for the reply. So to confirm it IS possible to do two years economics and then management studies in the final year

Yes, or two years of any course at Cambridge for that matter provided your DoS approves it.
