A level options

Hi
My school has set a deadline for submitting a level options for the 1st of jan

but i lowk have no clue what to take 💔

i want to pursue medicine or neuroscience and im predicted all 9s so i want to do 4 but idk which 4 😭

i love bio and chem so im certain on those, psych seems super interesting so i want to do that too, but im also considering socio and maths as a fourth

PROS AND CONS OF EACH

socio:
pros:
- im already working at a 9
- one of my strongest subjects
- could be good for personal statement?
- great teacher
- interesting
- love it so much
- my teacher said my work is already at a level standard and said it would be 'a breeze for me'
cons:
- other teachers in my school say its not a serious a level and that i shouldnt do it
- might be confusing to do both that and psych
- might be too much content if i do that and psych

maths
pros:
- i enjoy it
- im getting sm better now!
- my teacher said they have 'full belief id get an A* if i continue how i am rn'
cons:
- might be difficult idk
- id like to have an easier subject as a break from the really stem related subjects of bio and chem, but maths feels more like skills application than a content heavy subject idk

im so undecided for my fourth

Between maths and sociology, maths will probably be more beneficial for anything related to medicine or neuroscience.

there is no reason to do four unless it’s further maths and epq or core maths
i do psychology and would say it’s quite straightforward, there isn’t much difficult content but there is loads of it!!!
if you are insistent on doing four soc and psych are completely different a levels and subjects there’s no way you could confuse the content
if you are worried about too much content by doing sociology then why do you want to do four in the first place?
overall i would say just do the three
also a levels are going to be a massive jump from gcse there’s no guarantee you will get an a* even if you preformed well in gcse
gcses are so so much easier
good luck w your future!!!

my head of year told me to take 4 and drop one if it gets too much

You dont need to do 4 unless you are struggling to choose 3 from 4 options which isnt the case for you

my teachers are telling us to do 4 and drop 1 just incase, also my school's psych department is really unstable and underfunded (like its taught by an english teacher who apparently just reads off of the slides) so i want to do 4 just incase psych is too bad
