Are these A-Levels Manageable?

Hi, I'm currently a Year 11 student who is predicted Grades ranging in the Grades 6/7 realm & has mostly achieved these in all three rounds of mocks. I am wanting to continue and do 4 A-levels/BTEC Level 3 courses but Is the demand needed for the subjects im wanting to do to high in order to manage.
I am wanting to do:
A-Level Maths (GCSE mock grades 7 with highest 7.6)
A Level Criminology Certificate/Diploma - (Possibility of dropping after a year and getting my certificate)
BTEC National Certificate in Business -
(D* In both units of Coursework in CNAT Enterprise & Marketing (60% of GCSE, will get exam component mock grade in a couple of weeks (40%)
A Level French - (GCSE Mock grades 6/7 with likely GCSE outcome as a 7)

Criminology is not an A level. Its a weird Welsh exam board 'Diploma'. Its full of 'true crime' nonsense, and has limited academic credibility. If you are interested in this area, my advice is always to do A level Sociology - its a solid essay-based subject, and includes material about deviance and the justice system.

Do you have any ideas about he sort of degree subject you might want to do, or an apprenticeship area etc ?

The reason I wanted to do Criminology was to do with the fact it isn't all essay-based subject. That's why I haven't chosen a single A-Level/Level 3 course that is purely essay/end of Yr13 exam only just because I don't really like them
