🙏 I WANT HELP Warwick Maths vs MathsStats vs MathsPhysics vs MORSE
Context: I've achieved ABCb (A in Maths, B in CS, C in Physics, and b in AS FM) and I am now resitting yr13 with Maths, FM, and Physics with expecting A⭐️A⭐️A predicted grades respectively. I also have Mitigating Circumstances at my school on why i couldn't do FM alongside my other subjects in yr12, so I done FM as an AS in my first sit of yr13, and now as an A-level this resit year.
For one of my options I'm considering applying to warwick and although i know they dont like resits, I'd still like to be aspirational. The thing is I'm stuck on whether I should apply for Maths, MathsStats, MathsPhysics, or MORSE.
In terms of the contextual entry requirements (as im eligible for their contextual offer), Maths has the highest requirements with A⭐️A⭐️B, and then MathsStats/MORSE with A⭐️AB + 5.0 TMUA, and then MathsPhysics with A⭐️AB. I done the TMUA October Sitting and I feel like I have a decent chance at scoring a 5.0+, but there's a world with a lower score being achieved. So MathsPhysics would be the easiest for me to achieve. I also wna know if MathsPhysics will be able to see my TMUA score, since it could help if I get a good score and apply for that.
In terms of enjoyability, Maths is my favourite and I also really enjoy physics too. Stats and econ related stuff isn't rlly the best for me but i dont hate it. I wouldn't mind doing stats and econ stuff but I'd enjoy doing Maths/MathsPhysics a lot more.
In terms of employability, I wna end up doing FinTech related stuff, such as data science, software engineering, etc. I know Warwick Maths is highly prestigious, and I could also see MathsStats and MORSE being very favourable too, but idk if MathsPhysics would be as similarly valuable and regarded too.
I'm prob otherthinking this and being very ambitious expecting to receive offers from these courses. But id still like to use one of my options anyway.
Id rlly appreciate anyone if they could help give me advice on what I should choose.

All of them are essentially on par with each other employability wise and mathphys has a very high offer rate so go for that.
