Oxford economics degree apprenticeship chances

Im interested in the Professional economist degree apprenticeship with Oxford economics and Uni of Kent but i cant find much info about it.
How competitive is it?
What are my chances of getting offered it? - Predicted A*AA (Econ, bio, geog)
Will i need alevel maths?
How are people finding it currently on the programme?
Any tips for my application?

competitive but worth applying! don’t need a-level maths (although it does make some modules a bit easier). for your last two questions, i’d recommend finding some people on the programme on linkedin and requesting to connect with a message.

Hi there 😊
I am a student from the uni of Kent. The entry requirement for Professional economist degree apprenticeship is 120 UCAS points, your predicted grades equals to 152 UCAS points so you definitely meet and exceed the grade requirement. Here is the link for the full entry requirements.
I do not believe A level maths is required as it is not mentioned in the entry requirements but you are required to have a Grade B or 6 in GCSE maths. I have attached the link of the UCAS points calculator here.
I wish you all the best with your application. If you have any questions please feel free to ask away.

Best wishes
