Will these subjects allow me to go to a russlegroup Uni

If I did LIBF Financial Studies, BTEC ICT Single and A Level Maths would I be able to do like a computer science or economics degree? Thanks for your help

Why do you want to go to a Russel Group University? Other universities exist and for you may well offer a much better experience and opportunity to really succeed. Russel Group University are seen as being good because they produce good results, but they do that because they only pick the best students who would do well wherever they go. They do not necessarily offer the best teaching, or the best support or the best pastoral support. Nor do they necessarily offer the best add ons or student experience.

Employers do not care for the colour of your tie. They are only interested in what you can do. Only you can show that. Which university go to is generally irrelivant.

you'd be better off taking three a levels to include maths - avoid btecs and vocational qualifications

Have you actually looked at the entry requirements for these courses on Uni websites ....?
Have you emailed the Unis to check these entry requirements if its not clear on their website....?

As above, you'll need to email some target unis directly as they won't have public info about this specific combo of qualifications.

NB. Provide them the full title of the BTEC as there are a lot with similar award names.
