do eeny meen miny mo. photography is way more fun. It's just coursework so it doesn't have exams. pe is a lot of running, and analysis and you have to name all the muscles in the body(there are over 200), There's a lot of science in PE plus there are exams.
so in short, pick photography, once you finish, you can at leat take good selfies

if youre good at biology and the human anatomy and stuff like that then pe would be a good shout but photography is mostly cousework so you've just got to be aware of that
good luck!

I dont think anyone is qualified to decide that for you but if you want a more coursework based subject pick photography just bare in mind that it is probably gonna be a lot of work now but much less during exam week. Both will pay out in the long run, i think photgraphy would give a larger range over the subjects that you're taking atm. R u likely to take either for a level?

I think I would take sports studies / pe then but focus on your other subjects. - dont completely abandon pe but make sure your focus stays where you want to go (the sciences and maybe maths and english?)
