You can work at it with chemistry but physics is for a select few.
AQA Physics. AQA chemistry was so easy, definite A*

Content wise chemistry is the easiest, exam wise chemistry is the hardest :frown:

I do Maths, Further Maths, Physics, Economics.

My ability causes from easiest to hardest:
Economics (all essay subjects are so easy - despite Economics being by far my worst grade, 0 effort put in and I see stupid people get A's)
Maths (Easiest subject there is if you got A* in Maths GCSE and Statistics GCSE)
Further Maths (Would be easier if all three of the Modules I did weren't predominantly taken by A2 students -_- And all my close friends find it incredibly hard so it couldn't go higher in list)

Physics... Just such specific mark schemes that no matter how good of an understanding you have, you cannot do well without tons of revision.

And any subject with Coursework might as well give a GCSE qualification it's the same level of difficulty.


dont physics have coursework?
Chemistry. I think Hess should be shot because if it weren't for his stupid law then I would definitely be in with a chance of getting an A 😡
i think philosophy is hard. philosophy was combined in my religious studies exam at gcse, and i got an a* for it but at a level, i scraped a pass in the exam. philosophy is a ambiguous and requires a lot of deep thinking and the ability to justify your opinion with valid arguments and it conflicted with some if by religious beliefs and it was hard to not input religious opinions into my essays
I took Maths, Further Maths, Physics and Economics.

Personally I would say, Economics>Further Maths>Physics>Maths

But only Economics was a challenge for me. ^^

Yeah, what's your point? It's 20% coursework, so getting 20% is piss easy.

I don't do chem but from what I've seen in A Level results in my school, it looks pretty disastrous. Same students will gets As in bio, physics, maths or econ. But with chemistry, it just seems like the horrible subject. Some can do it and others can't. It's a gift that you find chem easy :P
