Philosophy and Politics or Politics degree?

Philosophy and Politics or Politics degree?

Which do you think would serve me best? I definitely like both Philosophy and Politics, although some parts of Philosophy I don't enjoy so much, so would love to get an outside perspective on the two degrees.
Thanks so much!

You need to go to some Uni Open Days and sign up for the subject talks for both degrees.

This is the only way you will find out the detail of what each subject involves at degree level - you cannot base this sort of decision on what bits of your A levels you enjoyed.

Its also worth looking at other related degree subjects or other joint degrees :
