There are lots of things which you could study at uni. The obvious choices would be psychology, biology or economics. For psychology, your subject combination is completely fine and won't limit you to any unis as far as I know. Biology is maybe a little bit more limiting. Most unis will ask for 2 science subjects (including biology). Most will accept psychology as a second science, but there are a few that won't. Economics is probably the most limited, as you don't do alevel maths, though there are some courses which will consider you without maths.

There are other courses that your alevels fit too. Many healthcare degrees are open to you - though medicine and dentistry will be very limited. Your alevels should be fine for nursing, optometry, radiography, etc. Law is also an option, as economics and psychology both fit nicely.

Think about what subject you enjoy the most, and have a look at some degrees that fit that subject nicely. Good luck!
