3 sciences at higher??

Hello, has anyone on here taken biology, physics and chemistry to higher and if so how is it? what kind of results have you been getting/got? And how much workload is it?. I got an average of 93% in the three sciences in my mock exams and I want to take all 3 but I'm not sure if it will be too much work. If you did them at A-level I would still appreciate advice.
I did this last year, although took higher human biology rather than just biology. In my final exams, I got an A in Human bio, a B in chem and a C in physics (I had a pretty crappy physics teacher) I found the workload to be quite a lot, although if you're an organised person with a decent study routine (which I am not at all) you should be able to manage it. It's all about just making sure you keep on top of things. Hope this helps :smile:

Ok, thanks so much for your reply, I'm going to just go for it and see what happens

:wavey: I did all 3 for higher, and would say that the workload is comparable to people doing other subjects, so isn't something to worry about too much. It is a step up from Nat 5, but that's the case across all subjects, rather than being unique to the sciences. If you enjoy all 3 and feel like there's a high probability that you want to so something science based after school, then I'd say go for it :smile:

Hi, one of my friends took all 3 and she got an A in all of them. I think she found it quite enjoyable as some parts of the courses did cross over with each other although she is quite a sciene-y person! So if you enjoy science I don't see why not
