What Alevels should I choose for becoming a vet?

I would really love to become a vet but I can't decide on my level options. I know that I will be choosing Chemistry and Biology but I can't decide between Spanish and maths. I know that I would probably prefer to do Spanish however I was wondering whether by doing only the 2 stem subjects instead of 3 would lower my chances of getting into one of the university's to do veterinary?

Definitely go for spanish as you are more likely going to get a better grade. And no it won't lower your chances

Spanish if you’re thinking of working abroad (plus language qualifications always look good) but if you’re up for it then maths as it’s challenging so I assume it’ll look better
Bio and chem are the only required subjects. I applied for medicine and I remember being torn between Spanish and maths too. I picked maths due to thinking it’d higher my chances of getting in, but to my surprise I saw people without maths getting into medschool. I don’t even like maths so I wish I picked Spanish instead. Definitely pick which one you think you’re more likely to get an A* in.
