Pure econ degree without FM

What universities can you go to study economics without FM. I know a lot of universities especially the top ones say you don’t need it but in reality like no one gets in without it. Is UCL and Warwick possible?

I might be wrong but as far as I know, Warwick is genuinely possible without FM, not sure about UCL. I'm sticking to the same plan and would like to apply there without FM

Hey I study at Warwick and I know quite a few people doing Economics here without Further Maths.

It is true that many applicants have FM but it is not a strict rule. If you have a strong grade in Maths and show good understanding of the subject in your personal statement, you can still get an offer.

Warwick looks at your overall profile, not just subjects. So focus on getting top grades and showing real interest in economics. It is definitely possible without FM.

Does Warwick Economics look at personal statements now?
