AS level Thinking skills and Sociology

[Hasnain1sds]

Guys I need help regarding taking Thinking skills and Sociology in my A1 as AS levels.
I already have:

1.Accounts (would be giving both AS and A level paper in A2, college policy)
2.Economics (would be giving AS level in A1)
3.English General (would be giving in A2 college policy)
4.Maths (would be giving S1 & P1 in A1)
5.Psychology (would be giving AS level in A1)

My question is should i take Sociology and Thinking skills given that the amount of time left in M/J 2011 session in which i would be attempting these, would i be able to cover syllabus (i know sociology is lengthy but thinking skills only require practice) plus the reasonable amount of past papers? If yes then which books and resources do you recommend?

P.S: I had 13 subjects in my GCE O'levels attempted in 3 sessions (3-3-7) which included subjects such as Sociology, Statistics and Addmaths so basically burden isn't much if an issue. My real concern is, is it near to impossible scoring good i mean straight As if i attempt or is it possible and nothing special?

Please reply ASAP as i would have to register with British Council PAK as private candidate for these additional electives.

One thing is certain that nothing is impossible if you put in the right amount of hard work. If you think you can give enough time to thes additional subjects then go ahead and attempt them. Since you kept statistics and Addmaths in olevels, maths won't consume alot of your time though psychology and economics are lenghty. It all depends on your dedication.

Ok so i have made-up my mind, would be attempting these extras. Now tell me which books should i buy for socio and thinking skills ? and any other resources (websites, notes etc.)?

Wesey i was looking forward for Shirazi's reply to this thread since he's very experienced regarding extra electives but never mind :| i think he's busy these days.
