We had this problem last year, it was quite hard to decide between 2 subjects. In the end she sensibly went for the one that kept the broadest range of A2 subjects and was a sitter for an A and dumped the "its going to be a bit of ghastly struggle to get an A in this one" subject

hermanmunster - that is not a real dilemma! :)

Most students are not in the position of how best to get three grade As ....

What degree/after school route is planned? Which subject best contributes to that? Most schools will let you continue for a few more weeks so you are completely sure. Grade predictions may be a factor ...

Talk to teachers or make a pros/cons list.
