A level decisions?

I'm about to go into the AS year and I'm unsure which subjects to choose.
I am considering
Sociology
Psychology (really enjoy it)
Media studies (did well at GCSE)
Classics
Business studies
Philosophy and ethics
Economics
Does anyone have any suggestions?

I'm in the same situation as you I have picked mine for Sep but I want to change them around :').Do you have any idea what you want to study at UNI or what you want to do as a job?
I would say take Economics because I think it encompasses maths and other skills which is always good :smile:

You mentioned classics, perhaps take a English instead or another language because some unis especially Russell group universities prefer individual subjects like them to classics, even though classics sounds really interesting :smile:

Oh I have no idea what I want to do haha I'm really interested in social sciences so I guess something like that. Everyone is pressuring me to go to uni but idk if it's for me.
I agree that economics would be a better choice thanks it does seem to be the most useful to an employer unless it was going to be used at uni.
What subjects have you chosen?? :smile:

If your interested in social sciences do them, if you enjoy something you can do well in it so win win :biggrin:

Plus I know what it's like to feel like pressurised which isn't fun at all, but if you don't want to go uni and go a different route like an apprenticeship or anything else, it's your life and you should do what you want to do !!!!!!! < can not emphasize this enough :smile:

I put down maths, biology , history and English but I want to change them because I would rather do econ and philosophy and ethics rather than English and biology.But then i'm like maybe take another science instead ahahaha i'm so indecisive :,)
