Yeh it's a difficult choice. I am in year 11 taking my Final exams this year. I am doing:

- Maths
- Further maths
- Triple science
- History
- Business
- RE/RS
- French
- Graphic Design
- Eng lang (Did Lit last year)

I have a lot of friends that do art and believe me it is a looooot of work. Probably the most demanding out of all them in terms of extra hours spent whilst doing coursework.

In terms of science, I am doing triple at the moment and you do learn things that you won't learn in your other options. Again, it is a lot of independent study and you have to be interested in the subjects to have any chance in getting a decent grade at the end.I would say that if you are confident in your sciences (Which seems to be the case) you can give it a shot. However, bear in mind you will have 9 science exams with 6 of them back to back. That is gruelling.

If you need any more help just reply and I will get back to you asap.

Regards,
