Well, first of all you should share your percentages; because even if have an A, it doesn't necessarily mean you'll get an A* next year because of the large range. Secondly, which subject combination do you want for A2? Are you going to go to university without appearing in A2?

architecturin...hmm..well as far i know- i guess phy and maths are the ones you'll really need. your results in those have been great. see how many subs would be needed to go to the uni you want to. otherwise, if you don't wana study chem, drop it. you'll get much more time for the other 2subs!

which country are you from? Because in Pakistan, you'll need Chemistry A2 for most universities.

Anyhow, check with universities you might want to go to. If Chemistry is not a requirement for architecture, drop it. If it is, you can always consider appearing in for both AS & A2 components.

Any good uni requires a minimum of 3-4 A levels.

I advised you before about Chemistry A2. It depends in the Uni and where you will be studying.

Each place have certain rules and require certain subjects.

As far as I know, Engineering requires Math and Physics more.

If you got C in AS chemistry then I don't believe taking it for A2 is a very good idea.

Perhaps you might consider another AS subject which might be more helpful and rather scoring.
