A Level Help

Hello all,
I'm looking to do a finance degree in the future and I was wondering if I should take psychology or RS? I have already decided on doing Maths, Further Maths and Economics and I'm looking for a fourth. Thank you for your time and guidance in advance.

You don't need four A levels, particuarly when the fourth one is as irrelevant to your intended course of study as these are. Stick to three, and aim for A*A*A or higher.

Thank you every so much for your response but it is compulsory for me to do 4 A levels if I am doing further maths. I have done some research and I have found out politics is recommended by some universities. What would be your advice now? Thank you again for your time.

I'd say think about physics as that would give you 3 maths ones if you drop FM. Politics, History and RS also would work well from what I've heard. Not an expert though.

I would recommend A-Level Physics, since so much content is similar to Mechanics in A-Level Maths and A-Level Further Maths. 🙂
