No doubt it leaves space but sum schools dont allow three sciences in sg, because they want u to choose a "social" subject. I had to fight for mine, Dan u do the same if u want todo the three lolz

And Kieran578 how did u manage todo crash adv higher biology? I thought u must have a pass in higher to do an adv higher. Amazing school u have i must say, our school didn't evn allow six highers

True that, same for my school. They let people at my school do 3 SG sciences if their guidance teacher + parents were both okay with it though (but I only did chem/physics as I didn't actually want to do medicine at that point :P)

Exactly the same as me!

I was allowed todo 3 sciences at sg without any fuss actually lolzzz No parents, no nothing, just a teacher who helps people with eng as a second language in school. But, it's strange cus i was the only one in sg, but then in higher they let another girl do three, which involved crashing higher biology, and they allow 3 in adv higher as well. Obviously sg is meant to be wayyyy easier, but they don't allow it then..........strange. Probably they want pupils to study a broader range of subjects that's why.
