history/politics a level

Choosing a levels soon - wondering whether to do politics or history?
My school does aqa history (tsarist and communist russia, and the making of modern britain) and edexcel politics (uk government and uk politics) and I was wondering which to choose.

I have heard the Russia course at a level history is one of the best topics (compared to studying other topics for history a level) however I have also heard it is extremely difficult and a lot of work.

I currently get top grades in GCSE edexcel history and really enjoy it, just wondering which to pick for a level.
Is politics a level easier /less workload?
If anyone has done these topics for a level please let me know which you would recommend choosing as Im really torn😭

As someone who has started both (with different exam boards) this year, I really enjoy them both. From what I have understood, politics is broader and covers more stuff. So far, history is harder- but i think if i was picking between the two i would pick history- just because it is a more respected subject by universities. Have you considered doing both, they compliment eachother really well???

hey, yea i was considering doing either rs or politics- still unsure 😭

I just dropped rs a level- hated it thought it was so boring and really different to gcse. so i would say politics def. i do classical civilisation instead and love it- its like a combination of rs, history of art, english lit and ancient history.
