I am currently doing Maths, Further Maths, Physics and English Language, in upper sixth. My offer is AAA in any of my four A-Levels, and I'm finding English increasingly burdensome. It is difficult to prepare for and to get right in terms of timing, and it is not a qualification I particularly care about (even though I do find it interesting).
Would it be reasonable to instead shift all my focus on maths and physics and maximise my chances of getting 3A* in them, or should I actually expend serious effort on getting the English essay technique right? Are there any consequences I should be aware of, should I decide to just scrap English, of getting a U (or a C, D, E or whatever) in my fourth?
Spoiler:Show
I am going to be doing politics in uni but my arguing skills are constantly being developed, so I don't think the argument of "you might as well start practising writing now" stands.
