Why do i find it so hard to choose my A levels. ADVICE!!?

Question:definite subjects
-history
-biology

then i was going to choose maths and physics, because i wanted to do meterology and they are required but now the thought of that scares me because i dont think im capable and my gcse results(b in maths and B B in science) isnt up to the standards of my school

then i started thinking about marine biology because i always wanted to do it as a kid, which i already had biology chosen but now im thinkin i have to do chemistry too.

other subjects i was considering was business studies and irish because i love irish, and business studies is okay

so should i pick
biology chemistry maths and history
so i keep it kind of all open

or give me advice please, i had trouble the first time, but this has to be decided by tomorrow

advice pleaseeeee

Answers:
You will still be able to keep your options open if you choose your subjects as history, biology, maths and physics.

Having a look at some of the marine biology course requirements, you do not need to have chemistry and can have a subject such as maths instead. You will be able to find a university that will let you on with these subjects.

Doing this option also means that you can still do meterology. Don;t be put off by the thought of not being capable, your results are excellent and im sure you would be fine on the course. If you really want to do meterology, then go for this option and have a go. It will be possible to suceed and even if you were to fail (unlikely) you can say that you tried.

If you prefer chemistry to physics then take it but if you need physics to do meterology then I would take physics as you can do that or marine biology. Go with whatever feels right and good luck.

Hope this helps
The best education path for people who are unsure about what they want for a career is business and/or management. The math and science isn't nearly as crazy as hard sciences and is even helpful for your own day to day life. It also gives you some time to explore what you like to do and then you can either get an advanced degree in what you choose or you can start a business doing what you find you can be passionate about.

Also, always learn new things even after you are "done" with school. it is so cliche but totally true! Ten years after graduating it has saved my but big time.
If you got grade B in your GCSE but feel unqualified to move on to A levels in those subjects it doesn't say much for your opinion of the standard of the GCSE's.

If you need those subjects and your teachers think you are capable of it then go for it, There are plenty of easy routes to A level these days but at the end of the day, most of them won't lead on to a decent university degree or a decent job.
I would just do the subjects that you enjoy the most. You are still young and have plenty of time to think about a career. Don't pick subjects based on a career.
Yes, consider possible careers, but you will perform the best in the subjects you enjoy most!
dump the historu and do the physics
GEOGRAPHY! definately for you, it would help you in both of your job prospects! And you dont have to have done it at GCSE level to chose it at A level. (unless your sixth form stipulates different)
