Help! I don't know what to take!!

Ok, Im in year 11 at school and desperately want to be a pilot. Since my birthday in June I've done 4 hours flying and am going again this month. I joined air cadets and I've also started reading the aviaton law book and the flying training book. I went to look around sixth form today and am wondering the type of subjects proffesional pilots have taken that have helped them to get their job. Obviously I'm going to do maths and physics a-level but I have two more choices. I was thinking french and electronics but the teacher there didn't seem to think french would help with the pilot idea nor did he think i was serious (as im a girl i think!) So...what subjects should I take or do french and electronics sound good? My mum isn't much help- she laughed as soon as I said pilot to the maths teacher and dad has no idea- he didn't do a levels. Sorry its so long but I would like help- the careers people at school aren't pilots like you guys (and girls!!) are haha also I'm predicted pretty much straight a* for the end of this year so I don' think I should find the subjects impossible! Thanks again xx
