What to drop at A2?

Ok, I am currently doing A levels in:

Government and Politics
Economics
Philosophy
Law

I love them all but honestly I don't want to do 4 A2 levels. I wouldn't say I really had a favourite, maybe Philosophy and they're all sort of roughly as hard as each other. I've been getting straight As in all our mocks so far.

I'm not entirely sure what I wanted to do at uni. I'd happily do any of my courses at degree level. My all time ideal course would be the Politics, Philosophy and Law course they do at KCL. Or maybe a PPE course.

Anyway, my sixth form also says if you drop a fourth subject you have to take up one of the following:

EPQ
General Studies AS
Critical Thinking AS
Citizenship AS
Use of Mathematics AS
GCSE Astronomy
GCSE Greek
GCSE Spanish
GCSE French
GCSE Latin
GCSE German
GCSE Psychology
Sign Language Qualification
Duke of Edinburgh

Not really sure which one to do out of any of these. I'm inclined to do an EPQ but everyone says theyre really hard!

You may find a language GCSE to be more difficult than continuing with all four subjects and general studies, critical thinking and citizenship won't be much good to you if you're hoping to do that sort of course. How did you get on at AS? If you got good grades then maybe you should reconsider dropping one.
