RE: A level Choices
Sport science is not something to be underestimated at all. At least not here. They are very hard studies and demand a lot on both physical and mental levels.
Obviously when someone says "kicking a ball against the wall and timing your heart beat is stupid" is meant in a sarcastic way (I hope). But so it pooring some liquids together and hoping it will blow up, or trying to proof that SQR(xy) =< (x+y)/2....
Sport science is a real science and just as hard as rocket science or whatever else.
Of course PE does not have better/more biology than biology science. It isn't less either. The focus is just different. You would learn more about the body physics in PE than in biology. But you would learn more about DNA in biology than in PE.
This goes for everything, from carpentry to history, philosphy, history, whatever....
I would realy like to see somebody who says carpentry is less, making a chair and table, a scenery or even a whole house. And somebody who says chemistry is worth nothing to try and make a bar of soap. etc...
If you only have the choice between biology and PE for example, then it is quite simple: do you like sports? Do you like to know how the humand body works and performs or does what it does? Do you want to know how you can improve your stamina? Do you like to know how it is possible that Navy Seals do what they do as they appear to do superhuman stuff? Or are you interested in DNA, how cells and life is formed? etc... Those are the kind of questions you should think about. Not about stuff like "what would they think"? Or what is the 'best' level? Or what should I take if I want to go to Oxford?
