French or Drama
What are you leaning towards? Or does it depend on grades?

Well, I did higher french and got an A, however, I absolutely hated it. On the other hand, I am really interested in Drama and like the sound of the course.

That sounds like you didn't do it @ KS4? Also, what did you hate about French?

I didn't study drama in S4 yes. I don't know, I just really didn't enjoy it.

Have you spoken to your potential future Drama teachers? Are you aware that it's nothing like KS3 drama? What was it that you didn't enjoy? The lessons? If so, was that because of the class? Or the teacher? Or is it simply the study of the subject itself which you didn't enjoy?

Edexcel for chemistry, OCR for biology, AQA for psychology and I can't remember for maths, but I'm pretty sure it isn't edexcel!
How about you?

if you plan on taking economics or computer science at uni, i advise you take maths as well or instead of history

Yes, I have spoken to teachers and I am going to do a trial run of both classes at the beginning of the year. As to your questions. I loved both my class and the teacher last year, the only thing preventing it from being a really enjoyable class was my dislike of the subject itself.

Ah, I'm on Edexcel for biology, OCR B for chemistry, Edexcel (GRR!) for maths and AQA for psychology as well!

Then in that case I would say that French probably wouldn't be right for you. I like the trial idea, see if that works for Drama. But you should think of a back-up plan if you don't like either...
