Right, with GCSE results as good as they need to be, I now have a choice to make for A-Levels.

I am definitely taking Maths and English Language, as they're easy, and useful.

Basically, I am now unsure which Science(s) to take with them.

The options are:

Chemistry and Biology (both well-respected, but possibly too tough to do both and two other A-Levels.

Just Chemistry with the other two, as, whilst it is hard, it is apparently very well-respected, and I'll be able to focus solely on it from a Science point of view.

Just Physics, as it is the only Science I got an A at for GCSE (got B's for Biology and Chemistry). unfortunately, it's my least favourite of the Sciences, but I seem to do well in all exams in it, without really studying very much. It also combines well with Maths.

I'm currently looking at a career in Law at the moment, and Uni's seem to just want core stuff really, so they can teach the Law course from scratch. This means that it doesn't really matter which one of these I take, as I'm guaranteed to have Maths, English and a Science, but obviously I'd like the best grades possible, whatever I take.

Opinions would be useful, thankee.

That's clear exaggeration, while these questions actually appeared in a Chemistry General Standard Grade paper.

What does the chemical symbol C stand for? (see page 3 of your data booklet)

where it proceded to tell you. also

What is hydrogen's chemical symbol? (see page 3 of your data booklet)
