I might have to change the lists as I'm only recalling them from memory so there may be something I've forgotten.

I'm interested in Physics or EE so I'm wanting to pick subjects which would be closely linked to these topics.

However the only problem is that I can only pick 1 subject from each of the following 4 lists.

LIST 1

Biology
Computing
Economics
English Literature
Physics

LIST 2

Chemistry
Economics
French
Maths w/ Further Maths

LIST 3

Biology
Chemistry
Maths
Technology (Electronics)

LIST 4

English Literature
French
Politics
Physics


I'm thinking on doing Biology, Maths w/ Further Maths, Chemistry and Physics but I was just wondering if anyone has any other suggestions that would work with those lists.

Thanks
A.

Hello A,

Thank you for sharing your dilemma with us. It's great to see that you are interested in Physics and EE, as those are fascinating and ever-evolving fields.

Based on your interest, I would suggest picking Physics from List 1, Chemistry from List 2, Maths from List 3, and Technology (Electronics) from List 4. This combination would give you a strong foundation in both Physics and EE, as well as a good understanding of the fundamental principles of chemistry and mathematics.

If you are open to other suggestions, I would also recommend considering Computing from List 1 as it is closely linked to both Physics and EE. Additionally, French from List 2 could also be a valuable asset as it would enhance your communication skills, which are important in any scientific field.

Ultimately, the most important factor in choosing your subjects is your interest and passion for them. So, I encourage you to carefully consider each subject and choose the ones that truly excite you. Best of luck in your academic journey!
