Okay guys. I am torn between these two subjects : History and Technology. (Technology is like circuits,woodwork etc)
I am better at History, but I get pretty bored of it but apparently we are doing interesting things next year. I like Technology more, but I am not very good at it. What one should I do? I was thinking History because I'm better.. and I am doing ICT anyway
Here are my Subjects-
Maths, English , RE , Spanish , Double award science ( all 3 sciences (Biology,Chemistry,Physics but it counts as 2 ), Business Studies, IT , English literature and then one of these. Please tell me what I should do and if you guys do any of them!

You really should find out more about what you're going to be doing in each course.
I took History at A-Levels and was gutted when it ended up that we were studying British politics from 1904-1951, and Stalinist Russia.

If the History topic is something you're interested in then that should make the choice a lot easier.

A History GCSE is a very good one to have, it'll open your choice's to more subjects at AS/A level.

It proves you have the ability to do things like analyse, infer and are skilled in essay writing. Among other things.

History is good but involves a lot of writing so if you cant write well during exams, i mean like 1 hour 30 minutes of non stop writing. For history you also need a good memory so you can remember key names and dates. Technology is pretty easy but involves a lot of coursework, the building is pretty fun but can be a piss take

Hope i helped, if you want more in depth stuff about the subjects feel free to add me
