So I'm doing my GCSEs this summer and so recently handed in my choices for which subjects to study at my school's sixth form. I picked English Lit, History, Classics and Politics, and I decided to do an EPQ as well. I really really love the first three subjects, and I've never done politics before but it sounds interesting. In my mocks I got A* in English Lit, A in History and A in Classics. Should be able to shunt all up to A*s by the time I take the real things. I'm pretty good at writing essays and have got top marks in all my English coursework. And I really love the subjects, I'll probably do a history degree at university.
However all of my friends think I'm crazy for doing so many essay subjects and say it will be too much work/essays for me to handle. What do you think? Am I an idiot?
I just don't know what else I'd pick; I hate the sciences, dislike the language teachers, decided against maths as I don't think I'm good enough, the only other subject I considered was economics but then that's still got essays and stuff and I'm unsure as to how good the teachers are, while my politics teacher is literally the best teacher and person in the world other than my English teacher.
