Need help with A-Level options?

If I manage to score A* in all my A-Levels and do a lot of work experience and other stuff then how good of a chance do I have to getting into Cambridge or Oxford?

guys sorry about interrupting..bt how do i make a thread?

Don't bother doing 6, untill you've started them it's easy to underestimate how much take they're gonna take up. Oh and i'm sure you can answer that question yourself really :P but then again don't assume just because you have great grades/experience whatever you'll get because loadsssss of other people do too

Well I've looked at the courses and discussed the courses of all the subjects with my teachers. I think I can handle the workload as I'm giving some AS Units of Maths this year to make life easier next year. What do you think? I believe I can handle it as I understand concepts fairly quick

Hmm well at the end of the day only you know how much work you can cope with but even if you can cope okay you're not going to have the best social life ever! Though it depends on what's most important and what you want to sacrifice...

On another note how do you even timetable six subjects, at my school if you take five you have one free a fortnight

I would have to put the same amount of time into 6 AS as people would put into 4 AS

I don't think so - the social life part. Like I said I manage to do understand stuff quickly so I think that I would have to put the same amount of time into 6 AS as people would put into 4 AS. I will self study one AS Level

Well sooory smartass but you really are underetimating A levels

Maybe I am I guess. I'll take all of your advice into account but how does this sound

For AS Level :

Option 1

English Lang
Maths
Further Maths
Chemistry
Physics

Option 2

Maths
Further Maths
Chemistry
Physics
Biology

For A-Level :

Maths
Further Maths
Chemistry
Physics

That should be fine if you can handle it, just remember good GCSE results do not mean you will get good A level results, it just means you did well at GCSE.

Tho', you do sound cocky enough to put the effort in but just don't expect any free time

Hi, I made this thread to seek advice from people on what A-Level subjects to take. Currently I'm predicted straight A*'s at GCSE's and I will try my hardest to achieve those hopefully. We have to give suggestions on what subjects we would like to take in AS and A-Level's by January.

Subjects that interest me :

Maths
Physics
Chemistry
Economics
English

The minimum requirement in our school is four AS Level and 3 full A-Levels

I want to take on 5 or maybe even 6

I want to chose : Maths, Further Maths, Physics, Chemistry, Economics, English Lang or Literature

The reason I want to take English is because I want my English to further improve so I can communicate in essays on other subjects better.

Also, in the future I might be going to study in America rather than the UK. Is it better to take an IB or AP course instead of A-Levels instead?
