HELP!! A Level Choice Struggle

I am 100% sure that I will be taking Mathematics as an A level. However, the following options (Physics, Economics and/or Geography) are frustrating me because I only want to pick 3 A levels.

Please help me decide on whether to choose Physics, Economics or Geography (take into account which subjects will be easier as I would much prefer to have an easier subject rather than a hard one).
What are you planning to study after A Levels? :smile:

If I was taking these subjects I would choose Physics and Economics alongside Maths. These subjects go together as they all complement each other. Geography would be the odd one out. But in the end it's up to you.

It's best to take 2 facilitating subjects if you want to keep your options open if you are not sure about what university course you want to do. Maths, physics and geography are all facilitating subjects.
