If you're interested in Engineering then Biology will not be a good idea. So, drop that out of the list. Secondly, Additional Mathematics is not a subject you should leave if you want to do engineering. Thirdly Statistics is an optional. Many people do it as an extra subject. Its not at all hard provided that you're good at maths(you should be if you're opting for engineering). As for computers, i haven't got any such feedback from anyone who did computer studies that it is hard. You may drop Statistics out of the list though.

Computing is easy if you do the Project early, the actual syllabus you can study in over 3 days :D
Statistics is also easy, if you are capable of doing additional maths then stats shud be easy.

Subjects like AddMaths & Physics help sharpen your skills, reduce your reaction times and improve your response rates.
Its only a subject but it helps in every aspect of life like football, driving and so on.
I would strongly recommend going for 'Option B'.

Yeah! You should definitely give Add-Maths.
Add-Maths, Physics, Biology & Economics are considered the most powerful subjects.
I don't find any trouble with any of the options but Biology would be such a waste of time if
you want to become an Engineer whereas Add-Maths and Statistics are gonna help you throughout.
Its a tough decision! Don't screw this up..

Dude, whoever is saying that you don't need Bio for engineering.. Go outside of pakistan.. There are fields called Biological Engineering... Stats honestly, give it if you want an extra A/A*, it is not required at all for engineering. Computing is VERY good if you have it along with Addmath. Drop stats if you don't feel like giving it. Otherwise, go for all of them. These subjects aren't as hard as everyone makes them to be. Its like if 50 of your friends tell you that Nirvana is a horrible band, no matter what, when you listen to it, you will think it is a horrible band. Its called peer pressure and how we are influenced by our peers. Relax, take it easy, go for them all. They're not hard at all. And.. what about your other subjects? Since you only posted 3.. You might be choosing them for A levels.. but.. this is an O levels forum.. and for engineering Math and Physics are a must..

Even if you choose to ignore me.. Dude.. Don't take stats, go for Everything but stats including bio. Bio is necessary for engineering if you don't have computers. Plus for universities it makes you more of a versatile candidate.. Meaning.. you have better chances of getting in.. Don't listen to everyone else.. they're stuck in pakistan, if you want to go abroad, go for bio. I'm telling you something from my own experience. Go for Bio.
