    A-levels for nursing help
    I've decided i want to start year 12 again after just doing A2 because i've realised that i definately want to do nursing and the A-levels i chose probably weren't the best combination after going to a uni open day, and my school didn't really help me with choosing.
    I think i'm going to do BTEC health and social care (double award) and applied science which i think is also a double award. This is because the applied science would give me the science needed for nursing, and when i did biology this year i did struggle with it, and health and social care lets you get experince as you have work experience in a care-home, primary school and hospital (providing that's what you choose to do).
    So, my question is do you think that would be okay do? I really want to do those subjects because i've struggled with biology this year.
    (I may get AS levels in sociology and biology btw which could bump my UCAS points up?).
    Thanks
