Hi there!
We were asked to go into sixth form today for a variety of reasons, one of which was to change, if you felt necessary upon receiving your GCSE results, your A-Level option choices .
I didn't need to change mine as I met all the requirements, however when it came to confirming my choices, I found that I was unable to take the four subjects I had originally chosen (Biology, Chemistry, Maths and History), as there was a timetable clash between History and Biology!
The only sensible alternative for me to take was psychology. Therefore I'm taking Biol, Chem, Maths and Psych.
I was wondering if any successful medical students took psychology at A-Level or whether anybody knows how this subject is viewed by admission staff for medicine? Is it seen to be less "intellectual" compared to history, or?
Thank you!
