    Re: Opinions on these A Levels
    They look good, but you'll be making it harder for yourself by doing 5 subjects. Also, I've heard that it isn't a good idea to take both business studies and economics. So I'd say that it may be best to drop business studies and keep economics as economics is more highly regarded.

    What do you want to do after A-Levels?

    Don't do 5 subjects you'll be spreading yourself too thin. Concentrate on only four. But, yeah they're a good selection

    I concur with Usy. Moreover, I would personally alter Religion for Philosophy, but that's my opinion? As of before, what do you want to study at Uni?

    Eng lit
    Politics
    RE
    Economics

    good choice
    Don't take business, economics and business cross over quite a bit so many uni's don't like it.

    Don't hesitate to ask me for A level economics help/ A level economics notes.
