is biology,chem & geography a good a level combination

I’m still not sure what I want to study at uni tho (either pharmaceutical science or law) however for law most universities don’t have any specific subject requirements…so should I also do an EPQ just in case for law or is not worth it?

Your A level subject combo is good for 100s of different degree subjects - both STEM related or the many degree subjects that require no specific A levels.

EPQ - its entirely up to you and what you think you can cope with.
Its is not a requirement for any course - and it isnt preferred for any course either.
Many people think it makes more sense to just get 3 good A Level grades - because they really do matter.

They’re facilitating subjects which mean they apply to a lot of different courses. I’d say do the subjects you enjoy

The idea of 'facilitating subjects' was dumped in 2019
Russell Group ditches 'facilitating subjects' A-level list

As a result of marketing legislation, all Universities now have to be entirely up-front and honest about which A Level subjects are required for each degree and publish this clearly on website course pages - there are no 'secret lists' anymore.
