Politics or Biology??

Hi,
Im considering taking politics at AS level as I am in year 11. But im confused, should I take politics or biology? I put politics down but I think we can change in the first term. Im currently an A at biology, and when im older I want to be an investment banker or anything in finance. I would like to take Maths or economics at university. My current choices are:

Maths
Economics
Politics
Philosophy

I am only a B in maths so I cant do Further maths. Im not doing physics because my college has terrible grades for it. What do you think I should do? Im interested in genes and stuff, but apparently Economics helps politics. Im quite interested in politics, there about equal in interest for me. Apparently politics isn’t reputable though? I don’t want to continue in sciences though in degree level, maybe at A level but I wouldn’t think so, as i probably will take Maths Economics and Philosophy A level.

Any help?- Politics or Biology?

NOTE: Im going to Long Road Sixth form college in Cambridge. I dont know if you guys have any idea on how good the courses are there (particularly Politics, biology and philosophy)?

So, should I choose A):

Maths
Economics
Philosophy
Politics

or B):

Maths
Economics
Philosophy
Biology
Doing an experimental science would look better for your application, so i say go for biology

Can anyone else help?
I'd say do politics as it is reputable, you are interested in it and will sit well with economics :smile:
