Hey! I feel like you have lots of options actually! You could enter a career in business or finance if you're interested in that. Or you could go completely different and do science! Psychology is a huge field that is still developing to this day. For example, there is even Psychology with Business if you think you'd like that. Or you can look into neuropsychology (which is a mix between psychology and Biology).
Biology also opens a huge field to look into but I feel like it might need at least another science (like chem or physics) or maths to actually do a degree? Unless you'd want to pursue BSc Biology on it's own of course.

Hiya!

My first thought, as a psychology student, is psychology haha, since it is quite a scientific degree and biology would compliment it quite well.

Though, for uni, I'm a firm believer in studying what you enjoy, and going from there. The more you like something, the better you'll be at studying it, and probably the better your job prospects will be in the long run. Which one of your a-levels are you enjoying the most right now? :smile:
