Subjects in AS level

I passed my Olevels with 7 A* and 1 A (medical group). i've just started with As LEVEL and need some guidance about the subjects i should take. I was thinking of physics, chemistry, biology, math , english language and economics (did not study it in Olevels). My teachers tell me that i am over burdening myself :no: . The problem is that I am REALLY confused about the field i want to choose.
MBBS (most probably but It is sooooo lengthy)
SOMETHING in LUMS (just for its name's sake)
CSS (my dad's forcing me to keep this as a target)

1.SO i want you guys to tell me the subjects "you" are choosing in your AS level.
2. can i give economics?? is it difficult?
3. Is English language worth giving in AS level? or is it just a burden?

Please spare some of your thoughts for me :)

physics, biology, chemistry and maths are my majors ! i am takin economics only bcuz i noe i woht b overburdening myself...its the same syllabus in AS s it ws back in O-Levels !! You won't really suffer if u r quite interested in it...Its easyy...plus interresting specially at AS !! Plus it gives ur subject combination a diversity and makes a really good overall combination !! I dunno abt english language at AS...I hvent seen sumone giv it back at my place, but economics is seriously a good choice cuz english lang. at As is half-credit while economics is a full-credit subject !! I know a girl who nvr took economics in o-levels but too it in As cuz she had second thoughts abt doin suthin in management sciences from LUMS ( for itx name sake) , she scored a regional distinction !! So trust in ur self and go for it ! :)
