Maths, further maths, physics and economics, Am i mad ?

A module on food technology? Glad my exam board didn't do that particle physics on the other hand
And at least it'll force you to keep on track January exams are the real thing, occasionally some schools will do all June exams for some subjects...but I can't imagine they'd do this for Maths or Phsyics

And as for the how many A levels are advisable nowhere's going to ask for more than 3.5, if you love all your subjects you could do 4 but from what I've experienced doing lots of extra subjects doesn't do you any favours & in some cases can compromise your grades, (obviously if you had 4.5 A*s you'd look amazing, but they're not going refuse to give you an offer for being predicted good grades in the number of subjects they ask for) if you feel under-challenged & find you have some free time read around your subjects outside of school and you could even pick up some extra-curriculars if there's something you particularly want to do

Yep we learn about viscocity and the flow of liquids, weird...

I dont want anymore A levels as i want to put all my work into those 4, and get atleast AAAa (hopefully A* depending on how hard it is)

how odd, hopefully that weird module won't put you off the rest of the subject

Best idea good luck with those

After two years of struggling with food tech, i hope not thats one lesson i tell everyone younger than me to stay away from, i mean an exam based on FISH, what the hell is the exam board on!?!?!!

Perfect subject choice for Economics at uni IMO.

Was you capable of getting an A* with a lot of revision through out the year or is it unbelivably hard ?

If you're good at maths maths and further maths shouldn't really be that much work. Same really with physics, if you can get the concepts easily there's probably less work to do than the other sciences/maths. I didn't do economics but from what I've heard it's not that bad you have to memorise quite a lot and do lots of time essay practice.

The four AS levels i am currently going to take are
mathematics
further mathematics
physics
economics

But today we had an open day at our college, and everyone in the tutor group told everyone about their courses, and i was only one of two further maths students in the room, and as soon as i told the teacher my courses she sort of looked at me, and asked if i would cope and said the workload is HUGE!

Also when i talk with friends about their courses, i got the odd geek/nerd crap off of retards, but most people seem taken back by my choices, as if they are almost impossible. Is there something im missing ? I dont have a clue how much work im going to be doing.. but one teacher said i would be spending a lot of time in the library, especially for economics. Do these subjects require A LOT of work outside lesssons ? Its not that im willing to put it in, im just wondering how much work there is involved

i did the exact same subjects at A level and I just finished with A levels this year. I think the work load is totally fine but again that depends how good u r at Maths. If you get maths very easily then it should definitely not be a problem. Also, if you take more mechanics modules in ur maths and further maths, it over laps with physics, so u dont have to study that much during exams. and no, u dont have to spend so much time in the library for econs. I guess it depends which board u r doing. Edexcel? CIE? i did edexcel.

Yes i think were doing edexcel! Im not suure if the units are exclusive to edexcel, but did you do units suuc has C1,C2,C3,FP1,FP2,FP3,M1, and i tihnk M2, that was some of the units there were more, i think its edexcel.
