Economics is difficult. Even at GCSE it's hard. Do History instead.
Yeah, I'm a bit worried about Economics :/
History isn't a good option for me. Modern history bores me to death (except the holocaust). Yeah, and with the ridiculous amount of reading there is in History, it would kill me. Ancient History is more my thing.
Class Civ is respected just the same as the other 3 it's just tediously dull. English = Philosophy=idk. What do you want to do?
Class Civ = dull? really? Personal preference, I guess. I thought it'd be a good option for me since I like English and really interested in the lifestyle of ancient civilisations.
i cant speak for the others, but economics is pretty easy to get an A in, but thats from someone who also did biology and maths
edit: understanding economics is like a sigmoid curve, you do badly throughout the year but you get a eureka moment, once youve sussed it youll get high grades, and then youll have to work reallly hard if you want an even higher grade like an A*
I hope that eureka moment comes pretty fast haha. My main worry is finding the subject boring 'cause then I'll lose all motivation to study.

i thought the same about class civ. I did GCSE. Not only is it difficult to achieve a high grade, the literature modules are generally dull.

its really not that difficult and all ill say is very few people in my class didnt like the subject

I took Classics, English Literature and English Language. The 3 a-levels do sort of mix well together but I wouldn't say that it's a dull subject as such... In AS we did women and how they were seen in Greece and also Sparta, it was very interesting that part actually. The second part was a bit harder, roman architecture which I basically failed in the exam so I am redoing that part of the exam in summer ;A; This year I've done Persians and The Persian War (if you've seen the movie 300 it's partly about that..) and now we're doing Alexander the Great. I think the thing about Classics is that depending on what your teacher decides what your modules will be about, you have a lot of source questions. Like looking at plays, written evidence and especially in this year, books.
