Courses What are the best A-Level options for someone wanting to do Physics?

[TensorCalculus]

Bit Britain-specific but I was wondering, what's the best path to take for A-Levels out of the following (I know Y10 seems a bit early to be thinking about A-levels, but my choice will impact what I do this year/ in y11)

I (almost) definitely want to do physics at University - so keep that in mind...

The subjects that I'm almost definitely going to take are Maths, Further Maths and Physics, and I'm taking a fast track programme which means that I'll be taking AS computer science at the end of year 11 - so I'll likely take the full A level on the side just because I might as well, I like CompSci and I'd have already done half... and then Chemistry too

Then there's my conundrum that on top of that, I want to take another subject: Geography, Economics or DT. Not because I think it'll boost my application or anything, I just think it will be fun! I won't be able to do much of those subjects when I go to uni I would presume... but I will miss them...

The question is which one to take? Will either one be particularly helpful later on? Do either of them change a lot after GCSE?

Also, should I take Physics A-Level early to take off some strain for sixth form? If I took it this year, I have a very, very decent chance at an A* - I could always take it in y11 to be safe.

Any advice would be appreciated, thanks! :)

I'm no help on the UK-specific questions, but on this:

I want to take another subject: Geography, Economics or DT.

One thing about taking Economics when you can is that it will help you understand finance stuff. That can help you understand and make decisions about how to manage and invest your money throughout life so that you have more now and later in life and in retirement.

BTW, what is "DT"?
