Chances of getting into LSE Finance/UCL Economics

So for context I applied for Oxford e+m (I got rejected and I suspect it’s because of my admissions test), Bath Economics (I have received an offer), UCL Economics, LSE finance and LSE Economics (I am aware I will be rejected from one and I suspect it will be LSE economics because I performed poorly on TMUA). I want to go one of the London universities the most. I have 4A*s predicted in Maths, Further Maths, Economics and Geography. Also achieved 99999999887 in GCSEs and have a strong personal statement according to current students at Cambridge economic + LSE finance. I also have certain contextuals (e.g state school + a female applying for male dominated degree) But UCL Economics and LSE Finance are both extremely competitive and am quite worried about getting rejected.

I know this is off topic but how do you revise a level economics ?

I use flashcards to learn the key definitions and processes. Then I just do 15 and 25 mark practise like a week before the exam and get my teacher to mark it.
