Hi, so I'm in year 9 and I'm about to hand over my GCSE options. I'm stuck between Geography, History, Media Studies and Child Development. I want a career in medicine-I want to become a dermatologist. Please don't tell me to pick what I enjoy cause I enjoy all of them. Here my reasons for and against taking each. I can only pick 2 of the 4.
Geography- I've heard it's well respected by sixth forms and universities my level is quite good and I haven't really put effort into it so far.
History- I've also heard it's well respected and it's a 'traditional' subject. I'm also quite good at it but I'm scared I won't be able to remember key dates.
Media Studies- I find this quite enjoyable and if my career in medicine fails, my back up plan is a journalist but I think that if I do suceed, and everything's going to plan, I feel like it would have been a waste of time. Also, a lot of people say it's a pile of crap and it's not respected at all.
Child Development- I feel like this would be useful for being a doctor and it's a subject I really enjoy. I've heard you get a fake baby for a week as well :P But like the media studies, a lot of people say it's not respectable at all and I'll learn it all in uni.
I've already decided on German, Art, English, Double Science, IT, RS, Maths.
Which 2 out of the 4 options would you recommend I take?
