Private Candidate

Hello.

I am thinking of taking another GCSE as a private candidate with AQA.

Does anyone do Geography and/or French? If so, which one do you think will be easier to study from home?

Thankyou

😊

With French, you'll need to do a lot of speaking practise which might be difficult to organise at home. Generally, languages are only taken as an extra by people who already speak that language but just want a qualification in it. It will also be more difficult to arrange to take a speaking exam as a private candidate.

I fully agree with Juno. Geography is easier to study from home, as there are more good sources of information online. For languages it may be harder to practise, unless you have someone who will correct your writing, reading and speaking practice.
