I am Going my IGCSE exams this June. I want to go for Business career. I chose Business Studies, Maths, Psychology and Economics for A Level. Is it good? or it's a bad combo?

Instead of Psychology, Law or Sociology would be a much better choice. It is good for business managers and owners to know the laws of the country to carry out effective business. Sociology, is also the study of human society, making it much better aligned for a business wise future.

My advice will be to take Accounting. You can drop business studies as it is not given a high credit even though its A2 exam is quite difficult. Also, sociology instead of psychology will be better in my opinion.

I believe it's a good combination as you psychology is always beneficial especially if you decide to major in HR or a similar field.
It really depends on which country and which university you finally plan to go to because the requirements for each uni varies from country to country.
accounting can help alot but drop phsycology for sociology or law is best . Law is hard i can gaurantee that
and socio is lenghty

Is maths necessary for this kind of a career?
In my opinion u should basically take on the subjects YOU find INTERESTING !
I have done sociology A level .I am doing psychology A level now along with business AS - level . A levels are bascially , in my view , need to be of those subjects that interest you . And you should only measure the subjects you pick on how much interesting , cool or enjoyable you think it will be . This will automatically be the same as you would like your career to be in .
Dont worry , if you havent taken sociology or psychology ( there is no IG for this , so lol ) in your Igcses . Most people dont and still do great in these subjects ! Psychology A level option actually has a whole option that overlaps with Business way too much ! ( Organisation option ) And Sociology as well ! So both these subjects are good for you . Both these subjects are interested in what people do and people do Business , lol .
So basically , dont get confused over socio or psycho . They are both great . Also they both help in business as well .
Economics and maths are also great for business obvioulsy .
