All LLB law degrees are equal as they need to be accredited by Solicitors Regulation Authority and the Bar Standards Board. You only need 3 A Levels. If you dont want to continue further maths, drop it. Year 13 content is harder. Dont make things harder on yourself.

Any Uni that does make 4-A level offers will also include a 3-A level offer - ie. 'conditional on achieving AAA or AABB' - so you could drop it at any point without that impacting that offer, but honestly, drop it now and put all your effort into the 3 subjects that really will matter.

I'd drop it now. If you drop it after submitting your UCAS application you MUST tell the unis you have done so or your application will become fraudulent.
