Politics or History?

Hello my name is Stephanie and I am in my final uear of secondary school. I really want to go into politics when I am older but I have a bit of a problem chosing what to do?
I want to go to one college and choose Politics, Economics and RE.
But at a sixth form they do not do politics but are encouraging me to do history as an alternative.
The sixth form is more supportive as there are less people in a class and I already know the teachers.
I am thinking of just buying a politics revision guide and and if I am really bothered I can learn it myself plus keeping up with current affairs like I already do.

If someone could let me know what they think, that would be amazing.
Thank you.

I'm voluntarily throwing spanners into the works:

If you do get into politics (which is competitive in itself), please help make sure things don't get any worse.

Hi there,

Politics isn't essential for univeristy or jobs, I'd say that background knowledge of subjects like history, RE and economics would be so much more helpful so I wouldn't worry about ti too much if you prefer this sixth form. I'd also recommend trying to get into different forms of experience e.g. contacting your MP

That is just what I needed to hear!
Thank you very much and for your other advise.
