Well, 4 ALs are too much to take in nov. To say the truth, I didn't take bio but I took A2 phy. A2 phy is very hard and the syllabus is very long. However, some friends took A2 bio last nov and they scored "A"
All in all, you can probably take bio rather than phy and good luck  :D

I think u should take biology if u like memorising.If u like manipulating and application of formula, u should take physics...Good luck...

yeah. Bio is pure memorization and thus easier than physics which is relatively frustrating as you need to learn it and then apply it (calculations bs).

Good Luck!

Explain your situation. Who is your sponsor? Where do you live? What do you want to study for A levels and at university?

If you would like to further your studies in Chemistry then i think you like memorizing and implementing.
Which means you are kind of good in Physics. Also if you think you can score A in maths easily i highly recommend you to take the physics paper.
Also if you dont think that 4 papers are burden its best you take all the exams as you can get a second chance or lifeline.
I understood as if you would want 3 A's that means if you happen to miss an A in the first exam you still can hope to score A in 3 subjects.
