It depends how good you are at languages. History has a lot of content but if you are good at memorising facts and essays it is a doddle. However if languages just click for you then go with Spanish. I am awful at languages and french is on average 2-3 grades lower than all my other GCSEs predicted grades so at least for me languages aren’t an easy option by any means.

to help you choose between them, maybe think about which ones you'll miss studying in y10/11 and then sixth form? I did history and French GCSE and really enjoyed them, currently doing both at A level :biggrin:
