Uni Choices

Hi, I've applied to Queen Mary, Kings, Bristol, Bath for Maths and Warwick Maths and Stats. My predicted grades are A* A A in Maths, FM and religious studies. I've received offers from Kings and Warwick and was thinking about switching Queen Mary or Bristol to LSE Maths with Econ. I know LSE is very competitive and ps holds a lot of weight for them but my ps is all maths with a very small section talking about a project I did on game theory. I would also be eligible for a contextual offer but obviously its not guaranteed. I would really appreciate any advice on how realistic it would be to substitute one of my choices for maths with econ at LSE. Thanks!

Cant say Ive any specific knowledge, but as you say lse is very competitive and from your description of your ps, youd almost probably be ruling yourself out of an economics degree (even joint) at lse. But if its a (maths) choice youd be unlikely to firm/backup anyway, why not try?
