DD is about to enter Year 11. She is doing Economics GCSE and absolutely loves it, with her economics teacher describing her as a natural economist.
She wanted to do economics at university until she learnt she'd need Maths A Level and that many economics degree courses are very maths heavy.
DD is good at maths and has above average ability but she's certainly not brilliant at it or a natural mathematician. Nor is it a subject she enjoys, in fact it's her least favourite. She therefore really doesn't want to do Maths A Level.
The subjects besides Economics that she does really enjoy and is very good at, and which come more naturally to her, are History and English. She wants to study these, along with Economics, for A Level.
She's now rethinking what degree course to aim for and wanting to find something that includes economics but is more humanities-based.
The obvious answer is PPE. However she's keen to find out about other options. She's interested in perhaps being an economics or business journalist. She's drawn to studying politics but not so much philosophy. As PPE is very competitive and over-subscribed, it's also wise to have some other ideas and it would be wonderful to find out from those with experience of some 'less obvious' degree courses, or any economics degree courses with a decidedly humanities focus.
Any suggestions? TIA.
