Go to an Open Day and listen to the subject presentations.
Open Days and visiting | University of Oxford

Only YOU can decide this one because its about what interests you.
What anyone else thinks is totally irrelevant - they aren't doing this degree, you are.

History & Economics has just an intake of 16 students and a 10% success chance of being accepted. Whereas, Economics & Management has an intake of 85 students but just a 5% chance of being accepted (which is the lowest of all courses at Oxford University).

Are you taking A-Levels in any of Maths? History? Economics?

Not really relevant in this context.

What are your current study subjects?
What are your interests?
What do you think of the course structures and modules?
Have you looked at what Oxford has online on these courses?
Have you looked at YouTube for the Oxford uni for perhaps demo lectures and so on?

Follow your interest at this stage perhaps. Both will have superb career prospects and I doubt either course would limit you to future work over the other.

I think this is one where you’ll have to dig into Oxford’s own online info including YouTube to build your own picture.
This helps a lot thank you! i thought over it and have decided to apply for economics and management.
