College have messed up my A2 options - please help
Basically, I currently study bio, chem, physics and psychology. Next year I planned on dropping physics however my biology teacher has decided next year that the two biology classes will merge together.
Our options are in blocks.
Block 1: Biology (my current class, which will merge next year)
Block 2: Psychology
Block 3: Chemistry
etc.
The other biology class that we are merging with is in block two and that is the block A2 will in completely now. So now psychology and biology A2 clash.
There is another psychology class in block 3 which will clash with chemistry.
Do I just need to accept that I can't do my chosen three subjects or am I right to be annoyed? Do you think that because the college allowed me to do that combination at AS they should allow me to continue to A2?
P.S - I'm really sorry about the wording in this thread. I seem to have lost my ability to write coherently. Please excuse it, haha. -

You have complete right to be annoyed; I dont blame you; Try to talk to head of sixth form or teacher because similar people might be in your situation and so they might reconsider before doing anything like that. This type of thing happens I would understand if ther was like 3 people in 1st bio class and 3 in the other like (once in my sixth form) but this is unacceptable

Would it clash with all of the lessons or just some? When I was doing my A2 levels I had a clash with IT and English, so basically only went to 4/8 IT lessons a week, got the notes and did the rest at home and was fine. Or would you have the option of doing one of your A2's through another school / college? Maybe as an evening course or something? If your teachers at school were willing to give you some support in the form of notes, textbooks etc this could be an option.
There is another psychology class in block 3 which will clash with chemistry.
