A Level choices?

Hi! Just wondering what people think of my A Level choices, so confused as to what my fourth subject should be :colondollar:

Maths, Further Maths, Physics and either French/Technology

I'd love to go into engineering, not sure which type yet. Technology seems like the most useful, but I really love French and I'd maybe like to work in France one day (dreams)
Any advice is helpful :smile:

Go with French, a language qualification is good for any career

Yep, obviously French then. Tech is actually not that relevant for Engineering.

Just on this... have a look at some of the "general" engineering courses offered at some unis. They have a common first 2 years and let you specialise into a particular discipline later.

e.g.
Warwick (2 years common) http://www2.warwick.ac.uk/fac/sci/eng/study/ug/degrees/ge/
Durham (2 years common)
https://www.dur.ac.uk/courses/info/?id=8544&title=General+Engineering&code=H100&type=MENG&year=2016#coursecontent

Also Cambridge and Oxford.

I agree.

French. Languages are both respected and appreciated by universities, plus you get to enjoy studying and improving your French!

Thank you all so much!

Chemistry, it is needed for Chemical Engineering because it looks like you aren't sure which engineering discipline interests you most so it is therefore important to keep all the options open.
