What subject are you dropping next year?

This year I've taken Biology, Psychology, Maths and Sociology.
I want to drop Psychology because it's well boring and my teacher is so annoying, but I know I could do better at A-level in Psych than say Maths. :rolleyes:

I think I'm going to drop Maths...or Biology. :confused:

What do you think I should drop?

Which subject are you dropping next year and why?

I suggest you drop the subject you will do poorly in next year ... however Maths is a good qualification to have for any University application

This Year I've taken Biology, Chemistry, Computing, English Language.

I really wanted to drop Computing but cant now seeing I did so badly in AS Biology. I will now drop Biology and will pick it up again next year as an AS.

For AS I'm taking Maths, Further Maths, Biology, Psychology and German.

Next year, I will either drop Biology, German, or both. Probably just German, though.

It's probably best to wait until you have your AS results before you make your final decision, but ideally you should drop your least favourite subject, unless that grade is much higher than one you don't enjoy as much. Keeping all your subjects is fine too if you enjoy them, you get good AS grades, you work hard and you're organised, but bear in mind that it's unlikely to make any difference when you apply to uni.

vietdoan: Do sociology! :biggrin:

I'm biased because I took it and found it really interesting, but definitely don't take General Studies because most unis don't count it as a proper A-level.

I do Biology, Chemistry, French, German and General and I wasn't planning on dropping any of them, but my school's really strict about keeping all your subjects - they usually only let people with straight As at AS and there's no way I've got that. I did want to do Medicine at Uni, but I detest Chem and I can't do it, so I might drop that and do Languages instead.

I'm (probably) dropping Maths. I can't wait!! Unless of course I get a really low grade in French, but even then...

I take: maths, further maths, physics, chemistry, biology.
Definetly going to drop biology, regardless of what I get in it, because its SO BORING! :p:

I've definetly done worse in it than the others and almost sure I've failed it, so doesn't really matter.
