HYP or Oxbridge for IB/PE?

Hi everyone, 

I was just wondering as I have been talking to multiple people, and I have not yet reached a conclusive answer. Do overseas target schools apply to the UK, or would I find it harder? 

For context, I am probably going to major in applied math/stat and econ, I am an rising sophomore and I have not done much extracurriculars; just one consulting and one finance club. I am now preparing for 2023 summer intern/spring week applications, and I am wondering if I will find it harder in the UK as I study in the US.

Many thanks!
