Gcse history or french?

History:, rlly interesting topics (ww11 and medicin), im good at essay writing , saw the description and it says its valued a lot by unis and 6th fiorms , because of its academic rigour . Helps with english too, find it a tiny bit more interesting than geograohy, cam be lots to emmorise, not as much trips -only one to london- they might do one to the wild west in the future
FRENCH: Good at memorising key words, Good at languages because i am a multilinguist, Not the most interesting but like the fact that u could learn other peoples cultures, more employable, good life skills, paris trip

I AM DOING ALREADY GEOGRAPHY, FM PLUS STATISTICS AND TRIPLE SCIENCE, WHAT WOULD BE BEST TO COMPLEMNT, I AM DOING A SCIENCE CAREER IN THE FUTURE
Neither History nor French will have any direct impact on a career in science, so go with whichever one you like most.

Bro choose history cus languages are hell on earth. I do spanish and I wish I never did. It's easier to understand and develop a language your fluent in than to try and do very good in another language. That said, choose what your more comfortable in and what you like better.

Well that's very subjective.

My top GCSE grades personally were A* French, and then As in English Language, English Literature, Italian, and Spanish.

The rest of my subjects were Bs and Cs

So it does just depend on the person.
