They would be respected at degree level (obviously) but the best univeristies actually blacklist them at A-level because they're not considered to involve much analysis or independent thinking. A-level Law, for example, seems to mainly consist of memorising case after case from what I've heard from friends. A potential lawyer would be expected to study something like A-level History because it is considered a more 'solid' subject.
Having taken A-level Law and now reading Law at university, they are both pretty much just memorising cases and statutes, applying them to given facts, and analysing their development .
Easiest would be subjective depends on the individual certain people find certain subjects easier. A person good at engineering might not be at history.
Respected I would think the ones which have some form of skills which would look good on the CV.

Well you are the aspiring law student so I'll take your word for it.

Im not disagreeing with you regarding the blacklist but i think its really subjective. I do law, maths geography and german and i find law by far the most challenging
Home economics.... EDIT:What's with the negs? if you want to go into cooking as a chef it's probably better to do an NVQ or become a sous chef or something rather than doing an A-level in the subject.
Dance, Applied Buisness, Law, Anthropology, Archaeology, Citizenship, Communication and Culture, General Studies, Health and Social Care, Leisure Studies, Travel and Tourism, ICT, Media, PE.
Probably a few more too, but that's the ones my college offer from the top of my head. Its hard to say what subject is easy because personally, I'd fail Dance miserably yet I'm quite good at Chemistry. Easiness is subjective. I'm going to get negged because there's going to be people who study these subjects, but they aren't very respected and that's hard to disagree with. Basically anything on the blacklists, Oxbridge isn't everything but its a decent guide.
I understand about the subjectiveness, but A level dance is actually not respected, cause it's totally useless if you want a career in dance :/
It's a silly question - people are just going to post subjects they don't do, which means they can't really give an opinion on it anyway. All threads like this do is allow elitist, naive students to go wild listing off every subject they don't have a clue about
I'm not elitist in the slightest, but if I compare my physics work to my friend's travel and tourism work, it doesn't even come close...
