Hi @dd4veyyj,

I think your subject combinations are perfectly sufficient for the course you wish to take. I understand that you want to boost your chances of getting into LSE, but four subjects isn't necessary and lots of universities only look at the three required subjects. A-Levels are a lot of work, and can get overwhelming so you can reconsider if you would still like to take four subjects. But if you do insist taking four subjects and deciding between chemistry and comp science, is there one between the two you particularly enjoy more?

Hope this helps,

I agree. Many high-ranked universities normally look at only 3 subjects. They don't rly care about your fourth subject a lot. even oxbridge as well. I think you don't rly need to choose an additional subject.
