A level combo

I’m starting year 12 in September and I am picking Maths, physics, biology and AS further maths. (I am doing AS further maths over year 12 and year 13) Would this be a good a level combo for someone who doesn’t really know what they want to do after sixth form?

I am also thinking about doing an EPQ either this year or in year 13 would this be a good idea or would this end up being to much?

If these are subjects you enjoy, then it looks like a totally sensible selection. There are a wide range of STEM courses / careers open to you - except anything Chem focussed - and the extra AS in FM is useful as many top Unis will make lower grade alternative offers with this. An EPQ isnt essential and its more important that you focus on the grades for your 3 main subjects than get distracted with the extra work of an EPQ.

Bio careers often need chemistry but if you arent sure what you want to do anyway maybe its ok. Is there a reason fir further maths?
