The obvious questions will be:
If you want to study modern languages at university why don't you study any at A2?
Is Chinese your native language and are you doing an A2 intended for non-native speakers?
Why maths and not history or French or English Lit, all more relevant to the degree?

Do you think these A level choices are wise or do you think they all are too closely linked?
Classical Civilisation
Religious Studies
History
Geography/English Literature.

Thank you!

Any fool can sit a test. Only the able can do well in it.. If you get STEP 1 or S (I, II or III) that would be an advantage to any Maths, Engineering NatSci or Economics application but a 2 or 3 could be a disadvantage.
