A-Level Business Studies

[Junaid456]

Hello, everyone. I wanted to know a couple of things. Firstly, I've opted for Physics, Chemistry, Biology and Mathematics as my AS & A2 subjects and my first priority is to become a M.D. Is opting for Business Studies, as my 5th subject, advisable or not? Should I? Plus, I have studied Commerce in O level and have an A* in it, so I am not completely unfamiliar with Business subjects. Secondly, is Business Studies a half credit subject at A Level?

Physics, Chemistry, Biology and Mathematics are all hell of strong subjects.
Business studies as your 5th subject is not a great idea!
If you want a fifth subject, choose one that strong enough and might help
you; like Thinking skills & Further mathematics.

Business studies as your 5th subject is not an great idea

Physics, Chemistry, Biology and Mathematics are quite tough and i dont think you could handle another subject in which you are not having O-level background
it may make your four subjects suffer

so i would advise you to choose your 5th subject an easy like general paper, urdu etc..

What about Thinking skills? Is it easy and how long will it take to prepare fully?

Well 'Easy' won't be the correct word for it!
Its quite difficult but really interesting.
If you're giving average time to it, it can be completed within 2 to 3 months.
The important thing is, Its worth it!!
