why?

If you pour a liquid into an acid, so lets say I poured water into sulferic acid. The acid, because it reacts so quicly and creates a large amount of heat in such a sort time when little friction is added to it, it will blow up in your face when the water is poured in. So to stop this you pour the acid into the water. Acid on the face really sucks (Y)

So knowing this you can get real creative and make a nice explosion. I won't tell you how to because it's quite dangerous.

You're taking Mathematics, so you could consider taking Further Mathematics. I'm doing further maths and i warn you that it is hard, but i want to do an area of maths at university so its really good for me.

same as me,  media studies isnt a great A-Level to take, its considered a 'mickey-mouse' A-level at my school... its not that good at A-Level, even if you do want to take it into university, its not really what subjects you take at A-Level and GCSE but what grades you actuallly acheive (my brother is giving me lectures, he's in his second yr in uni)

doing chemistry at A-Level there is hardly any practical, you learn ALOT of theory but dont do that many experiments, our chemistry teacher was saying this and he's someone who gets bored during lesson so does an experiment involving Chlorine Gas or the thermic reaction involving the production of thermite.


As for what you should choose...

i would go for a science, physics is a good one to take while doing maths i've heard, but it can be a bit of a heavy load to do, but you could always drop it at the end of the first year and just do an As Level in it (y)

O.P. RE: A-Level Choices.... need help/ other peoples input...
the reason im not sure what to pick is because i dont want to take any of them... i only want to take, ict art and maths... so the subject i need to pick is kind of something to fill the gap on the form...

my school onli has 20 media spaces... and if i dont get one of them im probably going to do chemistry
