Subject choices!

Flashling

I was just wondering of people here had to pick their subjects for leaving cert yet? I got my form a few weeks ago, but now I have to have it finished today and I cant choose between chemistry and biology:( What is everyone else doing?

Ours haven't come around yet, but I'm thinking:
French,
History,
Phys/Chem,
Business.

And English, Irish and Maths.

Not so sure about the Phys/Chem as I don't see myself doing anything with Science in the future, but then again, it keeps my options open.

I prefer Physics and I've heard its more interesting but like its up to you x

PurpleFistMixer

Oops, sorry TC. ¬.¬

I prefer physics myself. More mathematical, so I like it. Though it seems, if you're intersted in chemistry it's easy enough, you gotta like the subject though.

philologos

lol sorry about the number mistake >.<

Its useful for going to university though.

I did* English, Irish, Maths, Chem, Bio, Physics, Business, Art & French.

Of the science subjects Physics can be rather "dry", whereas biology is probably the most useful from a life point of view.

English, Irish, Maths, German, Applied maths, Physics and Geography (for easy points). Hopefully

I don't really want to do Science and really want to do Construction Studies, but if I do it I'll have no Science subject.
And since I'm not sure what I want to do and it's good to keep my options open with a science subject, I feel I should keep a science subject.

On one hand I hear people saying to do the subjects you like and feel you'll do well in, and on the other hand I get people saying to keep my options open.
