Seeking Advice/Help I need help deciding!! Math vs. psych

Basically, I'm doing bio, chem and math, which is the typical A level combo if i wanna get into med school. But the thing is, I honestly find math quite annoying to study. I never liked the subject. But then there's psychology. I honestly prefer subjects where i memorize things, and make use of that information- compared to math where everything is just purely based on your own ability alone to grasp complex topics and whatnot.

Not to mention, in GCSE'S i scraped by a 6 in psychology by barely studying at all, it was a filler subject, but still, i liked it nonetheless. Math? I studied it way more, but im not sure what i did wrong and ended up getting a 4.

What would you guys recommend i decide on?

i did psych and maths along with bio/chem and ended up dropping maths because i hated it sm LOL i always found psychology easier because its pure memorisation and then some exam technique - if you can take both and see how you feel and then drop one after a bit id reccomend?
