I am currently in Year 12.

And these are my subjects:

English Standard

Legal Studies

Studies of Religion II

German Beginners

Ancient History

(No sixth subject just five.)

At the present time I just desire a BA in Politics and International Relations.

Are these good?

lol, I thought you were Sammy2011.
As did I.

OP: While they aren't necessarily the best in terms of scaling, they would be alright for your desired course. Modern may be more useful to you than ancient though, depending on what you want to do specifically. Economics or Business Studies would be another subject to consider as well.

All of these are good, + do a level of maths if you can.

I'd recommend considering Advanced English. Otherwise, your subjects don't scale particularly well or particularly badly - but they're definitely relevant to the degree you want to do.

edit: Also I think Modern would be more useful. I went in to a Politics/IR degree with no history background and had to catchup somewhat. If you do any International Relations, it's good to have an understanding of 17th-20th century history.
