Should I choose Spanish or History A-level?

I'm unsure whether to pick Spanish or History for A-level alongside Physics and Engineering. Can anyone share their experience, advice, or what careers each subject helped you get into? 😊

Hi,
I have not personally studied these subjects. If you're deciding between Spanish and History alongside Physics and Engineering, it really comes down to what suits your interests and how you work best. Think about which styles of learning you enjoy more and where you're likely to preform best over the two years.

Spanish would help with employability and demonstrate you as a good learner whilst history shows your analytical, contextual and critical thinking capability.
Both are good in their own ways and it’s up to you but if your good at Spanish then I would probably pick it cause history at A level is extremely content heavy so it may burden your other two subject choices but pick what your most interested in as that would give you the most motivation and help achieve the best grades.
