Is A level physics, biology and chemistry really that hard?
I would really appreciate some counsel on this as i am considering choosing the three of them together, however have been told against it. Is it really that difficult? I acknowledge at GCSE that they are not inherently difficult by nature and I have little to no trouble grasping their concepts at this level, however A levels of course are very different. These are really the only subjects that I have any sort of drive to do for A levels which is why im stumped haha. So would it be best off to perhaps just take two or one? Or just do the three together? Any advice would be appreciated :3

I did bio physics maths (specifically that silly aqa bio) but ik a lot of people who did physics maths chem and started balding during exam season so i cant imagine doing all three sciences you’ll probably loose your mind. Pick two I STRONGLY advise not to do all three. I think pick 2 and maths or something you enjoy I lowkey wish I did maths physics and DT. I think it’s best to pick chem and the another or if you pick physics do maths only 2 people in my year did physics no maths and they struggled with differentiation and integration as they did not do it in maths. Chem and bio go well together I don’t think I need to explain. Chem and physics idrk but those two and maths were like what most people did who did physics. I’ll say choose between maths physics chem and bio (only bio if you do chem but if you choose to do bio physics maths good luck)

I do bio chem physics maths.. it is not the best option to do. genuinely if u have a choice pick 2 sciences and math or english r smth don't do all three it is really a big struggle. i have a few friends who also do the same and we're all struggling a LOT as its not the content thats the load, its the timing. like teachers will fly through all the content in like one lesson and you will be stuck learning it on your own, and honestly, if you do want to do all three sciences just be prepared to spend the next two years religiously studying for them. I am THREE months in and i am dying. BUT if sciences really are your passion then do it but strongly reocmmend against it. if you DO want to go down the science path pick 2. like bio chem maths for med or chem physics maths for engineering/physics related.
