Default Applying for University

Just looking over all the course choices and such, my mind is on the verge of exploding. I am thinking about taking a degree in politics, maybe alongside economics, but the huge amount of info is crazy. Any tips on how to break it down into managable chunks?

*zing* lol. I should have expected that What I really want to study is political theory - people's ideologies.

(Why they lie, in fact :D )

yeah, that's why im not definate about going for it. I really don't think I would either be cut out to study, or practice law though. Im pretty sure i'll at least attempt to get PPE (Politics, philosophy and economics) at oxford, but that will be pretty difficult too!
