Biology would compliment it well but that's three very difficult subjects to take.

Whatever you like, enjoy, and can do well at.

Maths, Physics & Chemistry OR
Food Technology, Electronics & Chemistry OR
Sociology, Environmental Science, Chemistry OR
Economics, Computer Science & Chemistry
They are all acceptable routes into the study of Chemical Sciences/Chemistry

And so would History or Geography or Art or Drama or whatever. Anything will be absolutely fine as a 3rd A-level.

Basically anything, because the only requirements (from what I know are only Chemistry and Maths).

I'd recommend picking either physics or biology as your 3rd, simply because there are strong links to both. There will probably be biochemistry modules or physics related topics that are options that can be chosen.

(By the way, this information can be found on university websites. Why do you want to do a degree in chemistry and not be willing to do a simple search?)
I would advise you to go and look at the specific course at your preferred university. If you don't know yet, just research a general amount of university and their specific subject grades requirements as well as any subject requirements.

Yep most Unis only ask for 2 sciences(Sometimes the 2nd can be less sciencey) and they let you decide the last, History or Geography would be excellent as a third since they are both facilitating subjects.

It wasn't a question, it was a statement.

But I'll edit for clarity :wink:

Maths + Chem for sure, the 3rd one doesn't matter much just choose something you're good at and will enjoy. Maybe add another science as it will give you extra possibilities in case you want to change your mind later on.
