Subject choices for S6

Hi, I am seeking a bit of advice for my subject choices in S6.

I am planning on doing modern languages with either Management or International Business as a joint degree at University.

Currently I’m about to do AH Spanish, AH History, Higher Psychology and Higher Business Management.

What would be better for my desired degree, Higher Economics or Business Management? I’m looking to pursue a career in marketing.

Also, is Economics a lot harder than Business in higher?

Have you looked at the subject requirements for the universities you want to apply to? Unless any of them list one of these two subjects as a requirement, then I'd suggest picking the subject you think you'll perform best in. It's easier to get good grades in a Higher course if you actually enjoy learning the content.
