Do I keep or change my subjects?

5

I began A-Levels this week and I picked Maths Economics and Computer Science.
In the GCSEs for Maths I got a 7 and Computer Science a 6 (Economics I didn't do at GCSE)
I am thinking about Biology and Chemistry and possibly other options aswell but I am not sure. I don't have a full idea of what I want to do in the future so I don't know what my subjects should be.

Thanks for your help

If you want to study Computer Science or Economics then you will require A-Level Maths and some of the universities highly recommend A-Level Further Maths as well.

Why do you want to study A-Levels in Biology and A-Level Chemistry? Do you want to study Medicine? Dentistry? Pharmacy? 😧

Look through the course specs and see which subjects have content which interests you. If you’re unsure what you want to do at uni its best to pick subjects which you find interesting as then you’ll have options in fields which hopefully appeal to you. If you do have som ideas though, look through some uni requirements and see broadly what subjects you’d need.

So I jsut completed my alevel economics and when I started I had no idea what I wanted to do and I stil don’t it’s a good alevel but does require a lot but if u enjoy diagrams and things go for it also in econ there are a lot of essays and it can get overwhelming

Even if you don’t know what you want to do in the future, having maths really broadens your options. So even if you don’t take economics a level, you can still get into economics and computer science with maths. You should pick what you enjoy and do well in
