Should I do Art A level?

I'd like another formal essay subject in there really, ideally history. Art's a lot of work, and not relevant to your degree, but if you have a passion for it by all means continue. I'd recommend English Lit and history as massively advantageous, though.

omg why does everyone want to do law...

What is your problem? It looks like a really interesting career and I think I'd be good at it because of my strengths: English (essay writing), debating (successfully), public speaking and remembering facts. Just cuz you're not interested. Okay so a lot of people want to do it but don't you think there are reasons for that?

we've got too many people with law degrees; the market is saturated and it's tough enough as it is for law graduates to get a contract.

a lot of people want to do it because of their sheep like mentality; they don't know what it entails after the degree, they just see the floral representation of the proud lawyer and the prestige of such a career.

do something in the STEM field...

I'm not being a sheep though. I'm genuinely interesting in law and criminal psychology. Call me a geek but I'm not interested in taking a degree in anything else

if that's what you want fine. but just to let you know there are many law graduates with 2:1 from russel group universities who are currently unemployed because it's THAT difficuilt to get pupilage.

and i would suggest you drop ART and replace it with politics as some of the things you learn in politics will crop up in your law degree.

for your final A levels Spanish, English Lit and Politics would be a strong combination if you get top grades in them.

If it doesn't work out though, it's still a good degree to have? It shows you're a hard worker and with a conversion course you can go into loads of other professions with it!

Okay I'll think about Politics, though I've never done anything like it before so idk if I could get as good grades in it. :/

don't even listen to him. I have friends who got into top top Russel group unis with history, English lit and art for law. I'm talking Bristol, King's etc. It's totally fine. You may not get to LSE or Oxbridge but it'll take you pretty far, also good for those A* requirements.

How about UCL?

I honestly have no idea about UCL... Actually I do think one of the people I'm talking about got rejected from there. You can still get into great unis with Art for law, maybe not the top ones, although a lot of them did have to retake in A2 year so that may have also affected their applications.
