    i would say biology is very fast paced u need to do alot of independant study if ur not a quick learner
    I odnt do physiscs but apparently it is very hard and only the people who understand it or like it will understand most of the thiongs in the lesson (actuallly i dont know)
    chemistry is nice and moderate its not too hard once you get ur head around it
    maths was the easist for me but if u picked stast (its very boring)

    Totally up to you, but if you want to give yourself a head start you could get something like this: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Head-Start-C.../dp/1847621163

    I did physics and maths...

    Maths was okay not too bad

    Physics on the other hand, haha , there is nothing on this planet that will prepare you for what you are about to take!
