Is taking Art A-Level risky?

Hello! I'm starting Y12 next week and would like to know if choosing art over business is wiser. My current subjects are business, math, physics, and chemistry. Art is my best subject but not my greatest experience whereas business, being essay-based, is not my greatest strength. I'm afraid that by choosing art I'll struggle to manage the workload of physics and chemistry however, because I'm aiming to pursue architecture it should be a no-brainer. Could you give me some advice?

You should choose subjects you will do well in and enjoy. Most architecture courses require AAB to AAA but don't have subject requirements. Business is definitely the easiest of what you have chosen so I would recommend swapping out one of your harder subject choices for art if you wish to take it.
