I do OCR MEI, do I take s3 or m3, or even both?

I've got the option to take for my further maths units:
- s3 and d1
- s3 and m3
- m3 and d1
I currently do OCR MEI, so any advice on any of these modules (difficulty, past papers) would be greatly appreciated!

m3 is more interesting. S3 is mainly for those who are not able or fond of problem solving and thinking hard, as it is a lot of routine and tedious processes. I would choose m3 if you're up for a challenge and are genuinely happy and good with harder maths.

What about d1? Would I have a harder time doing both m3 and s3?

If you want to make life easy for yourself, I would say S3 and D1.
If you want to maximise your chance of getting a good grade; again, I would say S3 and D1.
However, like Buses said; if you're up for the challenge and/or you're planning to do something like Engineering at Uni, doing M3 would help a lot.
