A level choices

Hi I'm in year 10 but am starting to think about A level choices and an keen to do a Psychology degree.

I'm thinking Maths and Psychology as I already study these at GCSE and struggling between Biology or Sociology. I'm doing combined science but have been told I could do Biology A level as it's my strongest science, however I believe Sociology may be easier to get higher grades in? Some of the universities I am looking at require AAA to AAB.... interested if anyone has any thoughts please or has/is studying either combination at A level.

Depending on the university, some courses might require 2 sciences for A level, in which case Biology would be the better bet as it would give you more options. But this is not the case for all universities, and it is often the case that grades outweigh subjects, as long as you meet the general criteria.
