I love a subject that isn’t in my field

I just finished Y11 and would like to pursue medicine in the future. Im thinking about choosing biology, chemistry, maths and/or physics for my a levels.
However, I am also really passionate about German and am just wondering if I should choose German too, and drop it if having 4/5 subjects gets too difficult.
So, what should I do about German?
P.S. I have gotten an A* for both combined sciences, maths and German iGCSEs

Only caveat I would put, is if you are German some unis won’t accept an A level in your OWN language as a third A level. If so do it as a 4th and see how you go,

I think this is much less of an issue currently. Unis are a bit wary if discounting them as it's basically discriminatory to make assumptions about what is/isn't a native language.
They definitely can discount it if it wasn't taken in the same sitting though.
If in any doubt, always best to check with the uni directly.

Useful to know. I came up against this last year so good to know that it’s changed! Thanks for letting me know.

Admit-one’s advice above is absolutely the way to go.

But if you just love German, and are confident of getting an A, then go for it, when accompanied by Bio and Chem.

I think if you’re doing med, don’t do physics and do German cuz you enjoy it. And like you said, if it gets too much you can drop it. Congrats on your grades btw those are amazing!

Your best chance of getting into med is 3 subjects (taking both Chem + Bio to maximise your options). So just pick whatever you enjoy and will likely get the highest grade in for your third. Uni's won't care what subject it is in.

Thank you!!
