    A level choices - help please?
    Hi everyone. For my A-levels, I wanted to do:
    Economics and Business (Edexcel)
    English Language and Literature (Edexcel)
    Psychology (Edexcel)
    History (Edexcel)
    Biology (yes.. they are all with Edexcel)
    However, no colleges in my area offer combined Economics and Business, or combined English Lang and Lit. What should I do?
    Thx in advance

    Business studies and english language are a lot less respected compared to economics and english lit, so go for the standard english literature and economics.
    Obviously it does depend on what you want to do at university.

    Thanks everyone, but I really wanted to do them and I prefer Business and Language to Economics and Literature Also, rather than History I want to do the new OCR A Level Humanities course for teaching from September, but I don't know whether my college will offer this o.o
    I've found places where I could do Lit+Lang by distance learning, but that's expensive, and my family is very working class. :cry:
