How usefull is AS Further Maths

I would like to study pure econ or econ and management at top unis such as KCL ,UCL , LSE , Warwick , bath etc
I know in order to get into competitive unis you need further maths. However, I am a bit worried about further maths so I was thinking to do further maths AS instead. Is it worth taking AS further maths or will it not be beneficial when getting into these unis?
appreciate the help

I'm not sure but I do know for LSE econ you need a level further maths and I would say if your school offers it opt for a level further maths as these unis may question why you did not do it when you had the chance.

Check the entry requirements for each Uni - some may make you a lower grade A level offer if you are predicted a high grade for AS FM. Just be aware that you have chosen all very competitive Unis for Economics and that is very risky for a subject like Economics where those Unis can have the pick of applicants. I'd suggest that you pick at least one less competitive AAA Uni like Loughborough or Birmingham or even an AAB/ABB Uni such as Southampton or Sheffield.

Also, I want to add I'm personally doing A level Further Maths and I am predicted A* in it. It's not the challenge that everyone makes it out to be imho.
