So you will only learn 4 at school?

Choose Chemistry as your fourth then because it is considered the hardest Science. :h:

Yea that's the plan hopefully! :cool:

Chemistry isn't 'hard' (I've read the AS book), it's just a lot of calculations and memorizing quite a bit. Understanding the actual concepts isn't that demanding to be honest.

I'm taking 4 subjects - Physical, Education, Design, Technology. Most people take 3 but I'm different.

I'd recommend Maths over Physics if that is the options you have for the last block. You'll learn a lot more content in Maths which you can apply to other fields in comparison to Physics. However, Physics is more applied so it tends to be a bit more interesting to most people.

Sorry to blow your bubble but most people take 4 AS anyways :biggrin:

Afterwards, in Year 13, they cut down to 3.

I seem to be the only one doing Computing nowadays. :frown:

Oh well, I've been a programmer for a long time so it should come naturally.
