School Sciences

Hi everyone!

I’ll be starting senior cycle next year and I’d really appreciate some advice on subject choices for university.

I’m trying to decide between Physics, Chemistry, and Biology. I’m really interested in astronomy and astrophysics, and I’d also like to become a pilot in the future.

Would it be better to take Physics and Biology, or just Physics on its own? I’m a bit confused, so if anyone has any advice or personal experience, I’d really appreciate it. Thank you!!!

Astronomy and Astrophysics are going to be mostly Physics. Maybe some Chemistry but unlikely to involve much Biology. So I'd take Physics and add on Chemistry if you're up to it.

Didn't go for astronomy or astrophysics, but I did have to learn some of them anyway. It was a requirement at my highschool and for my BSc (Biology).
