So basically as I've mentioned before the Danish high-school is divided into two; Linguists and maths/science.
I need to pick subjects for next year and the system of which subjects you're allowed to choose is complicated and takes too long to explain.
But being that I want to study International Relations and Politics at university (hopefully in the States or the UK) I was wondering which combination would be best?
English and geography?
Or maths and philosophy?
Could people please answer me tonight as I need to hand in the note tomorrow and I am on bare bottom.
Danke

I am far off having the grades for Oxford, but it did make me confused.
Thats because you'd need the maths for the economics and the philosophy for the philosophy, not the politics.
most philosophy courses in the UK don't expect you to have previously studied it, and some even prefer that you haven't.
maths would be useful to have, but if a degree course requires knowledge of maths they'll often have maths booster style courses running alongside the main modules.
Well too bad
I've already handed in the paper with my choice.
I'd love to do philosophy. I really really would. But rather pull high grades at subjects I can do easily and higher my average. Than getting passing grades at math which doesn't interest me and therefore pushing my average down.
Kermit said I could most probably do it as a smaller course for extra credits or something to that extent. He can explain it better than I.
Apparantly philosophy as a subject impresses universities. Dont know how true that is.
Fair enough, Geography is good at least........:)
Unless your syllabus is different, you're probably out of luck there. Course, it's also about really interesting things, like population density, and lots of statistics and whatnot.
Philosophy and English would've been your ideal choice, of course. But I doubt you're going to get excluded from Unis for not having done Philosophy. Geography's a pretty real subject too - look at DJP.
