Hi,
I'm choosing my AS & A Levels at the moment, and I know I want to do medicine at Uni (with a backup of probably Psychology or Maths at uni) and my Mam's trying to convince me out of taking music at AS.
This was my plan. Take Biology, Chemistry and Maths (definitely) at AS and then carry them on to A2. Then take Music during AS and drop it afterwards. And also probably do AS Further Maths (I'm good at maths, and the college does it so I might as well). But my Mam reckons that doing Music at AS would be a waste of time (blah, blah) even though I really love Music just as much as I love maths! I think it's better that I show that I have some variety, and it's not like it's a BTEC or anything, is it? I think my other option here would be Psychology, if it's not advisable to take Music. We have a taster week at the sixth form in a few weeks, so that will hopefully help me make up my mind, but I want to think a bit more before hand.
I've never taken Psychology before either so I'm not sure what to expect, even tough it sounds really interesting. But I'm a good student, my GCSEs so far are pretty much A and A* grades, and my maths is a definite A*. So it's not like I'm not going to work.
So yeah, some advice/guidance would be appreciated-thanks!
