A-Levels

Anyone doing A-Levels to impress parents? :/ Tbh I actually don't want to do A-Levels at all.

I had that attitude last year. I was only doing A-Levels because I wanted to get further in education than anyone within my immediate family.
After about 3 weeks I sort of accepted that I have a wide range of career options.

You don't want to do A-Levels at all? I feel like that every day but I know that after these 2 years I will thank myself for choosing to do them.

Still in sixth form (year 13).

Studying law, classics and economics - I don't enjoy economics but I just accepted the fact that I don't enjoy it and continue to try and do well haha
I did A levels and hated it, it definitely isn't for everyone and I can go back and choose something else if I could.

If you want to go through the academic route them maybe a levels are a good choice, even then you still have btec's to choose.
