Which A-Level subjects would be better for me to take up?

Question

I'm thinking about pursuing a career in politics.

What subjects do you think I should take up?

I'm interested in history and politics, but I heard that history is really hard.

Answer 1

My son wants to go into politics and has chosen English Language, Modern History, Psychology and Sociology as his A-level subjects (starting 6th form tomorrow).  

Economics would also be an ideal choice.  

Good luck with your choices.

Answer 2

media can't go wrong!!

Answer 3

Along with History and Politics you could take Economics and English Language :D

Answer 4

take government and politics and history...its not that hard really

Answer 5

Economics.

Answer 6

Sorry but if you want to pursue a career that going to govern the lives of millions, I really think you need to take a decent subject, such as history.  Fluking it with subjects that you've chosen just because they're easy won't guarantee you a job anywhere, let alone in government.

Answer 7

History; Politics; Economics; Psychology; English Language; a Foreign Language.

History is not particularly hard it's just a bit mind-numbing. None of these courses are 'difficult' there's just a lot of information you need to remember.

Good Luck
