Note the btec is mostly coursework. I would guess psychology is slightly harder bit nothing to worry about.

What you need to decide is why choose these subjects and do they work together to get you onto the uni course or career you want to do?

Have a play with and read of these.

Uni places are based on grades, but also doing the correct subjects. You normally pick the ones you enjoy which also means you will score well in them.

Which course?

If you are thinking of changing to English Lit, be prepared for a lot of independent work (especially reading...obviously) and a lot of essay writing. However, English Lit can be a fun subject if the texts you are studying interest you! :smile:
