Hello i am a year 13 student and i am wondering how useful and viable my degree choices are for finance. (Not sure what career to pursue, maybe economist, will do much more research after my A level examinations.)

I have been predicted 4 A* across economics, maths, geography and history.

In such turbulent times with great uncertainty I have settled on applying for a joint degree in economics and history which I am passionate about and (hopefully) provides me a suitable pathway into a career with reasonable pay.

I am applying to:

1. Oxford history and economics

2. Warwick economics, politics and international studies/ LSE economics and economic history

3. St Andrews economics and modern history

4. Edinburgh history and economics

5. Durham combined honours in social sciences

6. How suitable are these degrees for a career in finance (provided i make smart module choices).

7. Would you say that Warwicks course is that much removed from LSEs in terms of employability.

8. Less important but do you have any advice for someone in my position or suggestions on degree choice.

- Not applying for economics pure as it seems to be mainly a maths degree which is not attractive.

- personal statement mainly based around development and organisational economics and economic history, work experience i PwC tax and in a small Kenyan safari business.

Any advice is welcome and greatly appreciated, thank you very much for your time and have a good day!
