economics or geography a level??

Picking my options and wondering:
which one is more interesting?
which one has lesser workload?
which one is more relates better to my other subject options? maths, physics and history

The board is edexcel for both econ and geog:smile:
Which one is more interesting?
Depends on your own interests :wink: Geography has more breadth of study (both human and physical geography) but if you're only really interested in human geography, then economics might be better for you.

Which one has lesser workload?
From what I can tell, economics has the lesser workload of the two, but it's also a very intensive subject.

Which one is more related to my other subject options?
Both subjects go well with your options. It all depends on what you're aiming to study at university. I'd be inclined to say economics, as the choice of maths and physics indicates you like complex problem solving, particularly if you'd like to study a science at university.
