I've been looking at different university entry requirements and it seems most of them look at the UCAS points rather than the subjects you took, so I was going to ask you guys whether it mattered as to which subjects I really took? I'm not expecting to go to a university such as Oxford/Cambridge though definitely a Russel Group uni or whatever.
These are the subjects I was planning to take, I was initially going to take Maths however I only just scraped an A and don't really think I would do too well at A Level.
- English Literature (love English and I did very well at GCSE)
- Biology (it was easy for me at GCSE and I kind of enjoy it)
- Media Studies, it was in the block I had to choose from. I feel like it'd kind of be an easy grade, per say? I've always been good at English hence why I'm choosing to take it at A-Level.
- I was going to take either Computer Science or Film Studies; hear me out on this one! Probably the most difficult choice so far. I want some diversity in my choices, hence why I'm hesitant to take Film Studies since it's so similar to Media/Lit or whatever, I also know it's probably not a 'respectable' A-Level however I have been told that points matter more than the subject itself. I want to take CS too however the courses I've been looking at from different universities don't require you to have an A-Level in Computer Science, seeing how it's recently new, they only look at UCAS points, so I don't really think it is too big of a problem.
Honestly, I have no idea what I want to do as a career path. It was initially something to do with Architecture but since I'm not taking Physics/Maths I highly doubt that's a possibility. With the subjects I'm taking I'll go into something English based or possibly Software Engineering.
Thank you, I could really do with some advice.
