I will be taking A-Levels next year, and I hope to get into universities like Oxbridge, but I've heard of preferred subjects; 'hard' and 'soft'. As I am not a Science student, the 'hardest' A-Level subs are not open to me, ie. Physics, Chemistry, Biology and Mathematics.
Schools in my country don't offer many A-Level subs. I aim to take English Lit., Sociology, Economics and Law, but I've heard that Econs and Law are considered 'soft' subjects. Are they really?
I've even been considering studying A-Levels in the UK, where the colleges seem to have more subject options, ie. History and Geography. (Though it can be a little pricey)
I would like your opinion on which subject combinations/ facilitating subjects I should take. As for degree of choice, either English or English and Modern Languages (ab initio modern language). Also, please tell me if I happen to have any impractical ideas.
Thanks in advance. :-)
