Well what are your subjects? Hoe exactly are you planning to do your A levels (A2)? if you're done with them successfully, it's best advised to continue them.

Well, I'm not sure what the hype is all about. I mean aren't most students taking 3 A-Level subjects these days? Anyhow, I have 5 A-Level subjects myself--Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Math & Urdu. And I'm not splitting them like you are (i.e. I'm sitting in the May/June session only) and though my board is CIE, I'm pretty certain that CIE Math is definitely harder than Edexcel Math, even if the rest of the subjects are considered simpler in some alternate reality. ;D So I don't think it's tough. What were your AS grades? If you managed an A or even a B, you should consider yourself on the the greener side of the grass. :P

Remember to avoid subjects you have no interest in, (I would incinerate Physics and the Physics teacher if I had the choice) but sometimes you have to make the sacrifice for career prospects. Usually, your subject choices are incumbent to follow into Engineering of any kind, so unless you want to complete your undergraduate degree in a singular subject (e.g. Bachelors in Chemistry) then you can't avoid any of these subjects. Best wishes with your future!

Ari Ben is right and as far as i know all the good university wants at least 3 subject so i think you should continue with these three subject.
Good Luck ;)

Taking 4, like me, gives you a competitive edge.  ;)

Students sit AS at the end of grade 12.
Then sit A2s for the same subjects at the end of grade 13.
Grades combined to give final A-level grades.
Is this correct and are there any subjects that are usually completed in one year instead of two?

Correct. However, I think Further Maths is only taught in year 13 and hence finishes in one year.

He means he's not answering in several exam sessions - he's answering all subjects in May/June.

1-So Maths and Further Maths count as two different subjects?
*She :P
2-Is it common practice to answer all subjects in just one session?
