    Eh well my favourite subject are maths, accounting and business and am not sure if I should do this course or business and law. Also is the economics part east to pick up as I don't do it for the lc. Just what are your thoughts on it.

    Finance is very very mathsy!! but since you like it you should be good! ..
    I didn't study economics for the LC and the lectures said that's an advantage.. youll come to realise that everything youre taught for the LC will be of no use... well except accounting its just TP&L accounts if you choose it!

    I minored in maths in first year. The modules are statistics which wasnt too bad, Two calculus modules which I found fairly tough and abstract (Got a d1 in lc maths though) and linear algebra which was also handy enough.

    There are no work placements in finance unless you decide to take a year out in third year and find one yourself which I didn't so I can't say anything about that.
