Sixth year

Economics > Business

Maths and Physics are great. Economics would be a good addition if you like Business.

IT/Computing is bad, high ranked uni's will dislike it comparative to another science, essay subject or even Further Maths...

Further Maths is great!

You can't do Further Maths in Scotland. Only Maths.

Another science or essay subject then

Another science or essay subject then

What about a language e.g french?

Some English universities only ask for 2 Advanced Higher's but you'll want three if you want broader options, because some do ask for 3.

Yeah, those are fantastic

Make sure you choose things you enjoy, also. You're more likely to put in effort then

I want to go to a very high ranked English University so which one is better?

Let's be concrete: which university/universities, and to study what?

well I want to go to any one from LSE,Imperial college,Cambridge,Oxford,St andrew(scottish)

want to study either maths and statistics or something like accounting,economics (in this field)

Almost definitely need to do three then, they won't accept two at LSE.

Out of the one's you've got there, though, I almost definitely recommend you do AH Maths and AH Physics. AH Maths is essential for economics at most of those universities.

Your 5th year choices aren't particularly great either, not sure they'll accept information systems at those universities!

Well I am doing Higher Physics,english,maths,bussiness management and information system in 5th year, so what do you suggest i do in 6th year?

Physics, English and Maths at Advanced Higher, and then take another subject as well. God, I sound like such a subject snob, don't I? I apologise. I'm not saying they're stupid subjects, I'm really not. But those probably would be your best bets. Have you looked at prospectuses (prospecti? ) because often the universities will tell you which subjects are "preferred", which means you should take them if you want to maximise your chances. I think Cambridge actually published a list of subjects that would make them more likely to give you an offer. Of course, you could always drop the extra subject, 3 Advanced Higher's isn't exactly fun, since you'd have an investigation and a dissertation to do if you took those subjects. And don't expect Maths to be easier because it doesn't have coursework, because you have to keep working on it all the time in order to understand it. I sound so pessimistic, but it's perfectly do-able. I know people doing four advanced highers (one of them is doing an extra higher as well) and they haven't keeled over and died yet.

But yes, look at the uni prospectus for this year to get a better idea of what they're looking for. No point taking subjects if they won't help you.

Advanced higher eng no chance! I would love to drop higher eng but it's imp anyways thanks for ur informative answer much appreciated
