I'd recommend at least 3 facilitating subjects for those unis, art and design/media aren't going to impress them by any means. You'll have the best chance with 3 full academic a-levels and 1 AS-level in something reasonably respected

I want to know what the Most Respected/Facilitating Subjects are in A-Levels

I'm doing English Literature & History
Are they Facilitating/Most Respected? I heard they were but I'm still not sure if it's true, can you please help!😖???

Are these 2 options good for a Degree in a Russell Group eg. UCL, LSE??
How many Facilitating subjects do you need to take if your doing 4 A-Levels?
My other 2 options are Art&Design and Media Studies, is this good to get into UCL, LSE etc. and to do Law LLB?


English Literature and History are both facilitating and respected, yes :smile: they're definitely very good for those universities. However, although I'm no expert, I think top universities such as UCL and LSE for a subject as competitive as law would prefer a more respected A level than media. Having said that, UCL state that you need to be taking at least two of the subjects on their preferred A level list, and with history, english literature and art and design, you have three :smile:
