Don't pick based on the names of subjects. Try figuring out which one you'd like the most by attending a few initial classes. If you want an opinion, studying Business Studies at A-level is probably not as useful as the sciences. While studying sciences gives you a very strong foundation and takes your options to a whole new level (Engineering? Software designing? Architecture? Awesomeness?) , Business Studies can be pursued at any level ( a great deal of it is common sense. :p ) So pick up something you both enjoy and find challenging/useful.

Thanks a lot for your advice! =) Since I didn't have business studies in my o levels I am definitely not going to take it after reading this. If i am stuck with one science subject and I choose Physics is it helpful in the future or do i need to take one more science subject??

Many say that Physics and Mathematics alone is sufficient for Civil Engineering. However, since you don't know what you want to pursue, picking up Chemistry could be a good idea as it opens up many more options. So you may like to consider that if you are unsure or don't want to confine yourself to just a few options at this stage.

Yeah....i am going to commerce line. I just don't want to limit my option to just commerce, hence i took subjects from both sides in my o levels!
Thanks for the advice though!!!

Um.... i like chem better but I heard alone its quite useless!! Do you know any fields that just requires chemistry.....its a secondary option for me but, just like u said...i don't want to narrow down my options just to commerce!!
