DS1 (Year 11) is obsessed with politics. Also loves history and is strong at maths.
He assumed he woukd study maths, History and Economics A Level, thinking ahead to either PPE or a History and Politics degree.
His school have, however, just started to offer Government and Politics A Level. He read through the sylbus at school a couple of weeks ago and says it is a doddle. He's thinking about taking it as a fourth (his predicted grades are high enough to do this at all of the local schools) but we're reading so much about the crazy work load with the new A Levels.
So, assuming he is aiming high, question is whether Politics is considered a less "strong" choice compared to Economins? Would d it be better to try all four? Or economics and an EPQ in politics?
Thank you!
