What 3rd A level to pick?

So I’ve figured I want to go into psychiatry which is firstly medicine after which I specialise so I’ve chosen biology and chemistry but I’m struggling with my third option.Right now I’ve picked English literature and I enjoy it I would say but I’m conscious that subjects such as psychology or sociology may be more beneficial.What should I do?

*I have also considered Pharmaceuticals as an option so A level advice on that would also be helpful

Some schools prefer you to do three relevant subjects, while others prefer two relevant subjects and a “well-rounded student” one, so you’ll find unis that would prefer either. If you’re hoping for a specific uni look at their requirements and preferences; otherwise just choose whichever you think you’ll do better in and/or enjoy more

No Uni prefers 'a well rounded student' subject or any other archaic concept - where do you all get this sort of nonsense from.
