Not my other 2 subjects, just that one. I was forced to pick it at A level because my tutor thought it would go well for me
People should always choose their own subjects not their tutors .....it is likely you would do better in subjects you have more interest in (if there are any)

She thought it would go well because it’s memorising facts (as all A levels are) and it’s not thinking outside the box. I wish I didn’t give in to her pressure

Why did you hate sociology so much? So many people in my school who do it find it so interesting
Because of the family unit which I could only grasp parts of. We were introduced to A2 after AS exams and I could barely grasp anything and out of 10 key concepts I got characteristics of 2. We were warned it’s hard, I thought we were supposed to look for definitions. I’m not the only one and my teacher saw me as a high achiever. It did not go well at gcse so how is it going to go well at A level?
It’s a Mickey Mouse subject that a 2 year old can do at AS, but A2..no.
Do you think you are better at more factual subjects like Business Studies/Economics/Maths/Science?
Good at maths, bad at science, don’t know about economics and business studies. Yes I am good at factual subjects as I didn’t have a problem with English lit and maths before and they are factual.

I wouldn't say English Lit is factual as you have to use your imagination a lot.
If I were you I would research alternative college courses such as A levels in Maths (if you were doing ok in that subject) plus Economics & Business. Or if you were starting to struggle in Maths A level, maybe a BTEC in Business and Finance if you are better at continuous assessment compared to exams

I was good at English lit though. Shame I got angry and deleted all of my good notes that I did when I was well.
