thank youu guys
Hey. All four of your subjects at the moment aren't 'facilitating' subjects, and I'd recommend taking at least one facilitating subject as a lot of unis prefer you to have one or two. Also, the point of facilitating subjects is that they keep your options open if you do change your mind.

Most importantly, though, I think you should do subjects you enjoy because at the end of the day grades are more important than subjects and if you really hate maths and don't think you're going to do well in it then maybe you shouldn't do it. However, you should be aware that this will limit your choice in universities considerably.
