Do you have another humanities subject? If not it may be better to pick history because of the E Bacc. But ultimately go for what you're most interested in and what you think you'd do well in.

Hey there,

For GCSE, it is best to do what you enjoy most first and foremost out of the two, but do so with some consideration for what you see your interests being in the future!

A-Levels/Level 3s are where the most consideration for the future needs to be given, although often, what you enjoy and where you see yourself being in the future should hopefully align well.

Regardless of your choice, generally if you work hard and enjoy what you are doing, you will do well for yourself and be happy - which is the most important thing!

Wishing you the best for the future,
