Let's just wait and see what he wants to do at uni before we go telling him to drop things. He might want to do a Philosophy degree for all we know. Just saying.
i know that, but the op asked for our opinions a short list they had created... its betetr to do things you enjoy.
surely even you can agree that enthusiasm = better grades.
i should know... i have done 11 different a levels before i decided which ones i liked best.
ok take this example:
OP takes History, English, Biology (which she wanted to do) + Chemistry:
History = A English = A Biology = B Chemistry = A
or
OP takes R.E., Geography, English, History (which she wanted to do):
R.E. = A Geography = A English = A History = A
say the OP didn't know what to do (like now), but now decides to do a degree in medicine, which is better:
The AAAB with chemistry + bio or AAAA with no chem + bio??????
she needs to keep her options open. this is why if you don't know what to do at uni - take 2 arts subjects + 2 science subjects (don't give me this crap that geo is a science, it's not classified as a science at A-Level, and as far as I'm concerned, it's a humanity)
yes, enthusiasm = better grades
but better grades =/= advantage in getting an offer

geog is my least fav subject.
and yes but if they are not a sciency kinda person then your logic is flawed as they would hate /fail the subject.
