Hi to all of you

I made this thread here, I hope it's the right section.

My problem is simple. I want to attend an IB school in Norway. My subject choice would be something like that:

English A1 SL
German B SL
Norwegian SL
Maths HL
Physics HL
Economy HL

However the school doesn't offer Economy. In that case I would have to choose Business and Managment HL. Recently I checked universities' requirements and I found out that it is obligatory to pass exam in Geography, Economy or History. Here are my alternatives:

I can either choose History SL and change German or Norwegian to HL or
I might say, that I want do Economy or Geography self-study and see if it is possible. I don't like History, so that would be a shame to learn this subject another 2 years(and I suppose it wouldn't be easy in IB).

What do you advice me?

maybe take geography sl instead of a language? is that possible? 3 languages is alot and maybe not that necessary.

Well that doesn't solve my problem. Anyway I am good at both Norwegian and German, so it will be easy for me to get many points for them.
Is self-study a good variant at all?
