Should I do IB or 4 A Levels?

Hi everyone,
I'm in year 11 at the moment and need to pick my A Levels.
I'm on track (fingers crossed) to achieve A's and A*'s in all my GCSEs.
The A Levels I would choose would be: History, German, politics and Economics.
For IB I would do:
English (s)
Geography (H)
Maths (S)
History (H)
German (H)
Either physics or biology (s)

I hope to progress to uni to (maybe) study law.

Do you guys think I should do IB or the A levels?

Is IB too much work/really hard? And I hope to do silver DofE as well?

Thanks

I'm going to quote in Tank Girl now so she can move your thread to the right place if it's needed. :h: :yy:

Most universities prefer traditional A level subjects such as History, Econs, Bio, Physics, Chem, Maths, F.Maths, English. I'd say do maths instead of german and why not do law instead of politics :smile:

Law is not at all respected by Universities or enployers. Your current choices sound good, perhaps English Lit might serve you better than politics but it is not essential.
