I've chosen english lit, history and psychology at a level, however im wondering whether I should change to philosophy as psychology a level could weaken my application?
I would say psychology would be fine as a third subject. You need 2 facilitating subjects. So either English Lit or Psychology need to be replaced with a stronger subject.

B English lit is facilitating though
History and lit seem fine, psychology is a bit weak but you should be alright still
Well you don't really have to swap it. The other two are quite "classic" subjects so you're fine. If you like psychology and think you can do well in it then just keep it

Okay thank you, I'm just wondering what would you take instead? Would philosophy be better
How is Psychology weak? English Lit and History are weak.
English Lit and History are both facilitating essay-based subjects that uni's approve of. I've read up on psychology and some uni's view it as a weaker subject as it is not a 'classic' subject
Russell group presents them as: English literature History Modern languages – eg French, German, Spanish etc… Classical languages – eg Latin, Ancient Greek Maths and further maths Physics Biology Chemistry Geography

Cambridge like high UMS, so if you did Gov Pol, Psychology and English Lit, and got 95%+ in all 3, did well at the Cambridge law test, and rocked the interview you'd be made an offer. For law, grades matter more than subject.
