I'm thinking to take history, maths, chemistry & philosophy & ethics. Opinions anyone?

Would be a nice little combo. If you enjoy the subjects then go for it :smile:

Those sound like good subject choices to me. Do you have any idea what you want to do in the future with those? (E.g. university courses).

I actually do. I'm planning to study chemistry at the university of Leicester, then probably go for a PhD in the science field, chemistry. Are these subjects going to be hard for A Levels? I really enjoy and I love history, philosophy & chemistry, and they're my strongest. The subjects which could claim me As, only if I endeavour for the grades.

To study Chemistry you may want to take the Maths to A2 instead of the Philosophy (or all four). You have an even mix of essay-based subjects and non-essay subjects so you shouldn't be overloaded with coursework. The Maths is pure exam based and the Chemistry will have an ISA or EMPA practical module as well as exams - overall I would say it isn't too difficult a mix. Obviously all the subjects will be challenging but not too challenging.
