ADP vs. A levels

Going to sit for SPM soon.
However, I can't stop worrying about what path i should take after SPM is over and done with.

My choices are between ADP or A-levels.
I understand that ADP is an undergraduate program whereas A-levels is a pre-u program.
Plan on doing Business Administration.
I'm in science stream and (not to blow my own trumpet) but i do think my spm results will be pretty good. straight As.

I am so muddled and confused about what to do, which college to go to.
I have researched on ADP and from what i gather, you go straight into your degree if you do ADP. Meaning, if i do ADP, i would have graduated in 4 years.
On the other hand, if i do A levels, which is a year and a half, i will still need to do those 4 years prior to completing the course.
So to me, i would think that ADP is the faster route.

I do intend on going to the states to study. However, it would be great if i could get into LSE.
With ADP, you can't get into unis like LSE or other ivy league universities.

SO my question is to anyone who has/is doing A levels or ADP. I want to know which one would be the better course to take.
and whether it is necessary to get into a top university to succeed later on in life.

thank you!
