Easy alevels

I'm studying chemistry and maths for a levels next year, which i know is going to be a lot of work+revision. So I'm trying to find an easy 3rd subject to take with them. I know a levels are all hard, but I want to know what the easier ones are. I'm also awful at writing essays, please help me 😭

the only situation where i’d suggest not to take business is if you’re applying for oxbridge !!! otherwise another benefit is that in your real exams you’ll finish business papers before you even start chem and bio which helps bc obvs they’re harder subjects and you need as much time to revise

I'm not planning on oxbridge, but would like to go to a good school (Russel group or an ivy in America) do you think business will affect my chances?
