C in Economics vs. B in Media

Sorry if this is the wrong section but I couldn't find anywhere else appropriate..

Anyways what do you think would be better in the short and long run - a C in Economics or a B in Media at A2?

Thanks

As above.

Generally the C in economics IMO.

A c in economics is worth more than a grade a in media let alone a b imo, but if you just need some ucas points obviously a b is worth more ucas points, so it kinda depends on the situation.

What are your other subjects?

B in Media, unless you want to apply to top unis - but as those don't offer "Business and Computing", and would anyway have higher grade requirements, I'd take the B over a C.

Provided that your other two subjects are strong subjects.

I'm currently studying Business, Computing, Economics and Media at AS.

In my January exams I got an A in Business and a C in Economics, and in my Media coursework I got a B+.

Why not just retake the Economics unit? Economics is seen as a good A level compared to Media.
