A Level Maths or biology?

In my mocks I got a grade 7 in maths and grade 8 in biology, but I'm unsure what to pick for a levels alongside economics and chemistry. Im thinking about doing something in medicine but I'd like to keep my options open. Also, I had a taster lesson in my school for biology and I hated it. However, a lot of people don't recommend taking a level maths if I got a grade 7.

Biology is the better choice if you want to go into medicine, but some university do accept applications with just maths and chemistry. Maths will keep your options open if you're interested in economics/finance.

Most universities in the UK require A level biology for medicine which is something to keep in mind if you're considering applying. In terms of A level maths, I got a 7 in GCSE and ended up doing well still. It will take a little more effort but as long as you enjoy the subject, you can definitely excel. Mathematics also complements Economics very well. If it was the content in the Biology taster session that you did not enjoy then I would recommend having a look at the A level Bio syllabus and deciding whether any of it interests you. A huge part of doing well in A levels depends on how much you like the subject and therefore how much effort you put into studying it. As a final year biomedical science student with content similar to medicine, it is very heavily human biology based, so your interest in the subject is worth considering. It's also important to note that GCSE success does not equate to A level success. Feel free to ask any other qs, I did A level bio, chem and maths!

Which subject have you preferred studying at GCSE?
If you’re aiming for medicine taking Biology will maximise your options however taking Maths instead wont prevent you from doing med at uni.
Are you interested in pursuing chemistry or economics past a level into a degree related to their of them? If so maths is advisable as many chem related and econ degrees will or very much prefer maths.
Weigh up which one you think you will enjoy more and also are confident you can do better at. To be honest a 7 vs an 8 isn’t a big difference so dont let that define your decision. If you’re unsure of what is covered in the courses id recommend looking at the specs for the courses and watching some YouTube videos of previous student’s opinions.

Ok thanks for your response
However some of the universities I've checked online just say chemistry and one of biology/maths/physics/further maths for medicine. Or do they have a tendency/prefer biology over maths?

Will your school allow you to take both to start with and then drop one after a few weeks?

To be completely honest, A level biology is usually favoured over maths and this is because you need a strong foundation in human biology to start a medical degree. You'll find that most of the teaching in first year Med stems off of A level biology content. That being said, there are some UK medical schools that will accept only A level chemistry but your choices will be a lot more limited. Maths of course, is favourable too but I would say that for medicine, biology is preferred at most schools - you will find that the vast majority of applicants will have taken it. I know you said that you are keeping your options open so if you aren't dead set on medicine then definitely go ahead and take A level maths as that too will open many doors. Just keep in mind that if you decide to go down the medical route, you will have to be more strategic with your university choices
