If you could go back in time and choose A levels again, what would you do differentlyFor anyone just finished AS or A2.
Anyone love all their subjects and wouldn't change a thing?
Anyone wish they'd swapped one or two, if so for what?
Anyone wish they'd have just changed them all and gone for a different route?
Just as a bit of fun, and I thought it might be interesting to see if there's a pattern for certain subjects.

Re: If you could go back in time and choose A levels again, what would you do differeWouldn't have taken psychology as It's rubbish and It's more case studies rather than practical psychology.
I love English Language and Literature.
I love sociology.
I just wish that I would have taken biology and or chemistry to challenge myself and apply for medicine rather than chicken'in out and doing art subjects that I was good at

Re: If you could go back in time and choose A levels again, what would you do differeI would do Further Maths for AS level instead of Chem.
EDIT: I hated my Chem teacher and as a result hated Chem, it wasted a year of my life. Also further maths would help me more.Last edited by pbsjohnz; 27-06-2012 at 16:29. -

Re: If you could go back in time and choose A levels again, what would you do differethis. I love all my subjects apart from English lit.(Original post by ConstantlyStressed)
If I could go back in time, I'd change English Literature for anything. Absolutely hated the subject. -

Re: If you could go back in time and choose A levels again, what would you do differeI did History, English Literature and Goverment and politics at A2 and loved them all and did Geography at AS and didn't.
I rather wish I'd done something like Economics at AS now. -

Re: If you could go back in time and choose A levels again, what would you do differeI regret mine a lot. Would never have done Maths and Further Maths and should have took French and English Lit instead. *Sigh*
They just weren't for me and a language would really help what I am applying for. -

Re: If you could go back in time and choose A levels again, what would you do differeChange Art and Computing to maybe Physics and Economics.
Keep Maths and Further Maths but decide not take FP3 (I almost killed myself from the difficulty) to M2 or S3. -

Re: If you could go back in time and choose A levels again, what would you do differeWish I'd never done maths, thought I could easily breeze through the AS and then maybe carry it on. 100% dropping it now after an awful year.
Other than that I've loved politics and history, whilst eng lit has been fine. Would most likely chose something like philosophy instead of maths or something of that nature. -

Re: If you could go back in time and choose A levels again, what would you do differeI'm quite happy with my choices. Although, I'd like to have done Economics at some point, maybe instead of History which was a killer when it comes to learning the material D:
