german, maths + english lit a-levels - are they broad enough?

i'm someone who hasn't the foggiest idea what they want to do after a-levels; no degree ideas, no careers, nothing. i'm predicted nine 9s at gcse so subject difficulty won't be an issue but i don't want to specialise too much at this stage since i haven't decided on a career or degree just yet. so are english lit, maths and german good options? ie will it allow me to choose from a wide range of degrees/careers later? i enjoy them all and find them all very easy so that's not an issue, i just want to make sure i'm not eliminating many of my options post-year 13. thank you :smile:

They sound like a good combination to me.
Languages are always useful to have. Maths and english lit are both respected subjects.
Obviously you wont be able to go down the medicine/engineering route (as you would need science/maths related a-levels to do that) but those 3 subjects still open up a lot of other options.
