What A-Levels are you taking/what did you take?

Doing A-Levels next year, want to go into teaching to either become a primary school teacher or a history teacher. My A-Level choices are based on both on what I enjoy and what I'm good at (they are my four best subjects).

History
Maths
Biology
English Lang

That's the order of most certain of to least certain of. I'm only worried for biology because I take double science instead of triple (since I was never good at chemistry or physics), but I work really hard and I enjoy it and i'm fairly good at it. English language i'm not sure because it seems random, but I think it will be enjoyable - I don't think it's highly respected as much as my other A Levels too. I put French as my reserve, but I don't want to take any other A Levels to be honest.

What are you A-level choices? Do you have any subject advice or a level advice in general?

Sounds good! Which one is your favourite and which one is your least favourite subject?

They're quite tricky, quite a few people are taking them. I would call them the death of A Levels. If it's what you want to do I suppose it will all be worth it.

Sounds good, we share two of the same a level choices! Do you know what you want to be when you're older?

Those are fine but just know accounting at university has very little maths. Although you're working with numbers a lot of the time its very simple maths thats involved. Thought I'd let you know if you don't know already as many have this misconception.

I think they're great! Maths, further maths and economics are obviously pretty relevant to do with accounting and physics will look impressive (plus you do a lot of maths in a level physics - ask my brother, he took maths, physics, georgraphy and further maths)

Yes they're very good subjects. Most uni's care more about the grades than the subject for accounting anyway (provided they're facilitating subjects)

don't worry.... I thinks the same its a welcome of death n afterwards during the A levels there will b no sign of recovery n eventually I will die :biggrin:
