    Chemistry or economics?

    okay i want to study something math related.
    my choices is either becoming an actuary OR an air traffic controller.

    for my igcses i have maths, physics, french, biology and i was thinking of either chemistry or economics.

    I think you should take chemistry because you can take an economics A level without having a GCSE in it but you can't do that for chemistry. Also, not many universities ask for economics but if you change your mind and want to do something science related, you will almost certainly need chemistry. So taking chemistry will keep your options open. Hope that helps
