course help

hi im in year 12 currently (maths, chemistry, economics a levels) and am really unsure of what degree/course to apply for.

im stuck between chemistry or economics which are quite different but im very unsure.
i think i prefer chemistry at the moment at a level but would rather have an economics/finance based job in future
ive got decent supercurriculars for both but am aware how competitive economics is and am aiming for top unis

do PPE or something, it's a good undergrad which can get u into practically any masters
