I suppose people generally think people with maths and sciences are smart.
From my own experience, I'd say someone with more than one foreign language is a hard worker and pretty intelligent. Most people drop out after AS because the workload's ridiculous.
Also from personal experience, I don't think business studies counts for much. I loved it because the lessons were such a laugh, there was hardly any work and the little work we did was really easy. And I still got an A at the end. Brilliant subject to keep you sane if your other ones are tough and easy to do well in.
Overall though, I think the most important thing isn't which subjects you do, it's the grades you get and whether they're relevant to your course.
If you want to study medicine for example, certain A Levels are required like Biology, and you have to get AAA. I wanted to do an international business course, so French, German & Business Studies with As and Bs got me the place.
So, if you're thinking about which subjects to take, I'd say look at what will be useful to the course you want to do at uni. If you don't know which course you'd like, choose the subjects you do best at, because the higher your grades are, the more options you'll have.

my friend has been on this lawlink and medlink course for medical and law students and the give you guidance on how the universities choose their students. She said first of all they pick them on the bases of excellent grades as in A*s,A s or B's in GCSE and A level.Then they look at the subjects and the ones they don't really consider as a proper subjects are(no offence against anyone here):art,drama,technology,critical thinking,business etc.their top three ones are sciences,maths history and others that they think quite highly of after these are languages like french,law and others related to the area you are applying for.I would say go for sciences,maths,history or a language because they do help you build up loads of skills and they take you far in life too because their are so many branches of science,even if you re working part-time somewhere noone ever tells you off for doing sciences.but it also depends i must say on the career you are applying for,if it's business or artistry then you'll needthem subjects but even doing one science won't harm at all.i want to be a doctor so iam doing three sciences and maths,however you can have other combinations for As like history instead of physics or french,art,geography,but as you do three subjects in A2 they definitely want bio,chem and maths for it.hope that helps!

depends on the university, and what you're applying for really. But maths is always highly regarded as being tough. History is good for essay writing, and english too. But sciency ones obviously if thats what you're aplpying for. Basically if you're talking about the top uni's they don't regard general studies and the more vocational a levels as highly.

english lit, maths, science? Is best to NOT do an a-level in the degree you want to study (law, sociology etc) but things that will compliment your potential degree. So if you wanted to do law, then english, maths psychology? or if you wanted to be a doctor, then 2 science and maths?

maths chemistry and physics, just because they are the hardest alevels. alevels in media and law are a waste of time if thats what you aim to do at uni. if applying for law, unis much prefer to see english and history alevels than law
