A-Levels for Computer Science?

I am set on Maths and Computer Science A-Levels but am not sure whether to take physics, business studies or economics for my 3rd option. I know physics is a more respected subject but I don't think I would do as well in it as I would in business/economics as it is much more difficult. Having said that, I do think I would enjoy it at A-Level as I did at GCSE so I believe I would be willing to work hard at it. Would taking business or economics decrease my chances of getting into a good university compared to taking physics?
For computer science any of them would be fine as a third :smile: In fact I would guess than economics would be more useful than physics so if you'd prefer to take that then do :smile: Business is generally less respected, however as you have two other good subjects then I wouldn't worry if that's your preference!
Although further maths can also be helpful for computer science if you're up for that?
