My sixth form subject choices

my question is what do you want to do in life? what do you want to do in the future

Honestly darling, a university out there will accept you & 6th form has a huge workload, so really and truly you probably want to be doing subjects that you actually enjoy rather than ones that you don't. Maybe look at a few uni courses online and see the requirements? Talk to a careers advisor if your school have one? When I was choosing my options I found this website that lets you put in your choices and see which courses will most likely be available to you at uni: https://www.theuniguide.co.uk/a-level-explorer If you really want to change to applied law then you should choose your favourite two out of the ones that you have already selected and drop the one you're less keen on. I can't really give you much advice on uni choices because I'm just about to start 6th form too haha. Good luck hun!

The main reason why I might change film studies to applied law is because there could be more choices opening up. the btec creative digital media is kind of similar to film studies. if i do business, media and law there could be a better chance in uni and future for me. however, i am a tad bit more interested in film studies than law

I am not sure. Maybe something related to business or media.

Maybe have a look at the Universities you are interested in and see if you can do anything with Film Studies, Media and Business and if you don't think there is a lot then change to law? Do you have any sort of vague idea of what you would be interested in pursuing in University? Just make sure that you are being true to yourself with whatever it is you choose, because as I said before the workload is quite heavy and you definitely don't want to be stuck with a subject that you are not interested in.

I am going to be completely honest. I have no idea what I want to be when I grow up. I have no idea what I want to do at uni. I am mainly interested in media only because I enjoy photoshop and editing videos. I chose business because I have an interest in being self employed. I may choose applied law instead of film studies just because I might be interested in doing other things and there could be more choices in uni. For now, when I’m at sixth form I’ll just see what subjects I like the most and maybe pursue a similar subject in uni

oh okay, if you are 100% certain go for it but if you're still thinking maybe choose a completely different subject so your options are open.

Yeah I think I am going to switch A-level Film studies for BTEC Applied Law instead.

So I’m starting sixth form soon and my father really despises the choices that I made and thinks that I will go no where with these choices. I chose a level film studies, btec business and btec creative digital media. Are these good subjects to pursue? Are my university choices low? Also I’m thinking of changing a level film studies to btec applied law, is this a good choice? Any tips will be appreciated

Did you take btec creative media? If so how was it? I've considered doing it, but I don't know anything about it. I would really appreciate it if you tell me everything about it (the good,the bad, the amount of coursework compared to theory and how useful it is). Thank you

Damn I didn't know people were still active on this thread lol. Yeah I took Btec media and now im finally signed off for it. I originally took it because i really enjoyed imedia back in gcse but this was very different. I'm pretty sure that the modules are different for schools. In the final examination (there are no written exams for this btw) I had to do a one minute short film following a brief. Anway I really enjoyed the filmmaking aspects of the course but there was other things I did such as creating a magazine front page, editing a movie trailer, analysing movies etc. The bad side is probably the fact that my teacher was AWFUL. Like really bad at explaining anything, so this may not apply for you. For the coursework, It's not difficult but its really long so dont be like me procrastinating the work untill the last day where I had to just look at ppls work and apply it for my own (talking about a portfolio I had to do on my one minute film). So good luck
