I'm taking English Literature, RS and Politics, which are all very essay based. For my 4th AS I want to choose a less strenuous subject (or a contrast). My school doesn't offer many non-traditional subjects, and I'm not very good at maths based subjects. I like Art but feel it would take up too much time. Any advice on what else I could do?
why not go for a modern foreign language? it's by no means less strenuous, but if you enjoy learning about different cultures and tongues then it couldn't be more suitable! it would really compliment your current choices and give you an edge as a prospective lawyer, i reckon.
Many Universities do not specify any specific subjects for Law. They are just interested in mega-high grades.
Bristol is one example : "All A-levels are acceptable, with the exception of General Studies and Critical Thinking. No A-level subject is considered any more or less important than any other. A-level Law is acceptable, but does not confer any advantage in the admissions process" http://www.bris.ac.uk/law/ugdegrees/
