Warwick PPE vs Management ( with Pathways to finance ) for IBD?

I am currently a few months away from applying to universities for 2024, with the aim of a career in "high finance" (IBD, AM etc.) after completing my degree. I've narrowed down my university choices to LSE & Warwick as my top two "ideal" choices. I have a dilemma with the course I want to choose at Warwick which is between Management (with the opportunity to specialise In finance) or PPE. On one hand, PPE aligns better with my other course choices (especially LSE which I am catering my personal statement to the most), while the Management course is also extremely interesting to me due to how diverse the module choice is. However, I am worried I have an increased chance of getting rejected from the Management course as my personal statement won't go into detail about it. Honestly, I know WSO isn't the best for academic advice but I'm just posting in case someone who knows Warwick can tell me whether they really care about personal statements or whether I should just choose the course I want to do regardless.
