A-Level options dilemma

I'm starting my a-levels next year and I don't need chemistry for a-levels. I'm not sure which subject I should take as a 3rd, chem or business studies? Ik ppl say chem is hard but my school did this thing where we started a-levels right now till June for a headstart. So far, I've understood what the teacher is teaching me but I'm still unsure what to take. Is business hard. Btw I'm doing international a-levels.

What are you thinking of doing at uni? If you’re required a certain type of subject then take one which will suit your course. If not just do what you enjoy the most

I would just do what you enjoy then. I was unsure between drama and English lit based on one being a facilitating subject. I chose drama because I enjoyed it more and haven't regretted it. I don't know enough about your course to say what they'd prefer but if neither business or chem are required just do what you enjoy more! :smile:
Just do what you enjoy/ are already good at. I do chemistry for a level and although it is hard work, I really enjoy

Tbh the teacher gave me a predicted grade of 9 for chem but I wasn’t so sure bout taking for a levels but when I got a taster for bio and chem, I found bio harder.

Firstly, good for your for your predicted grade! I finished with a 7 in chemistry, and I’m currently doing fine, so you should definitely do fine, assuming you put the work in obviously. A lot of the chemistry content is new, hence why it is considered to be the hardest of the sciences, but it does come down to personal preference
